I would of loved to play UNO Jonnn, but for 2 reasons i coulnt gonk

1. I have a silver account
2. I have hughesnet service so my DL/UL is less than 1Mb/128kb

In June ish we can play together, when i have a cable modem, and you can see my talent in UNO lol

Did you just start reading XKCD?  

[Tron714]

I actually stopped reading it for a while, and this is one of my favorites. i also wanted to know who else uses linux and if im the only one or not.

I have a linux desktop and a windows vista laptop, and im kinda dreading how virus prone vista is. Hence why i chose this perticular comic xd

I'm going to step away before I go on my "linux is overrated and a typically giant hassle that is not needed" rant. Also I've never gotten a real virus on my computers, ever, and I've always primarily used windows, so don't even try the virus argument.

On a positive note, while I usually don't really like xkcd, I thought this one was amusing: http://xkcd.com/574/

I for one dont think linux is overrated, the fact that its free and i can modify something is very nice. I love the fact i dont have to really pay for a thing. Just a CD to partition a HDD and im done.

I like windows and the software it has, just right now Vista eats so much hardware its hard for me to afford the parts i need to operate it to the quality i want.

Being the lazy person I am who just simply buys computers premade, windows is practically free for me too. After quad cores come down in price in a half a year or so I'll probably pick one up, and by then windows 7 will be out. I'm currently on XP, which I still like a good deal.

:O buy computers!! I am in the process of rebuilding and making one. Money is the issue for me unfortunately. So the cheaper the better. Right now i need a new 400 or 600 watt power supply to fix up my desktop.
