Welp, there was talk about this guy on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
a couple days ago, so I couldn't help myself and I wrote
the below message to him.
Look at his response. He spent about as much time reading
my email as he did using linux.
This guy is a melvin. People like this need to be exposed
and discredited immediately. He is a clue-less Windows slave
who unfortunately probable has influence.
I can see it now in front of all his office buddies:
"Yeah I installed the darn thing is right away it said
I had to login and I didn't even see anything about
Network Neighborhood."
"Once I finally logged in, it just gave me a number
sign. Right then I realized that it probable doesn't
have a start button, so I deleted that damn thing."
"Good job John, I wouldn't take any guff from those
Linux freaks".
Maybe I'm taking this too serious, but this article hit
a nerve.

Subject: Employment?
I would like information on possible employment opportunities at ZD.
I think I would do well since it seems you really don't have to know
anything about computers in order to work there. Your almost right
about one thing, "Linux has a snowball's chance in hell of making
perceptible inroads against Windows." but you forgot a couple pieces.
I'll rephrase it.
"Linux has a snowball's chance in hell of making perceptible inroads
against Windows as long as people like me are content with Bill
Gates keeping me stupid so no matter how bad his operating system
is, he'll continue to have a market."
I really don't want this to be perceived as a flame toward you. I
understand that you really can't help it.
Article like yours enrage Linux users because they know people like
you have influence.
Did you even take time to learn about Linux or Unix for that
matter? Do you think Microsoft started computing?
I'll bet you spent months getting win95 working when it first
came out, and about 2 hours installing and playing with Linux.
Perhaps you didn't know what to do at the number sign.
When you ask, "Will someone tell me what's so great about Linux?",
do you think you would even understand the answers?
Thanks
P.S. Please let me know how my grammar and spelling is because
obviously if I can't spell, then everything in this email means
nothing.
