Sounds like a frustrated Linux luser. Of course he gave no details
whatsoever about his 'daily Windows faults'.

Actually, he's one of the regulars that helps Windows

(And don't just read the post -- go and read the thread,
it's a monument to miscommunication.)

It’s funny, isn’t it, that the number one reason given for using Microsoft
Windows is all these third-party apps and addons and other crap, yet when
bugs in them make your Windows system unusable, suddenly it’s not Windows’
fault, and you should keep using it anyway.

You remind me of the GuhNoo luser in this old post:

"My friend is a linux lover...Linux gives him tons of problems (he uses
PCLOS) and he always talks about how good it feels to fix problems in
Linux, yet when his XP install gives him ONE PROBLEM after three years
he starts talking shit about microsoft."

It sounds to me like his friend is a fat blonde and Linux is her abusive
negro boyfriend. In this case, Windows is the White friend who loves her
and wants to take care of her but who she shrugs off because he doesn't
"appear" to be as cool as D-Von.

Someone who doesn’t say “100 to 1 they won’t actually be the OS fault”.

Avoid reality at all costs.
