    For YEARS GuhNoo/Linux goons on cola and elsewhere have said Linux works
    the way the users want it to. Now you say the opposite.

    Who to believe?

    Just some more imaginary problems from DuFuS. Linux works the way I want it
    to work. As for "goons" on COLA, talk about projecting. COLA is for
    advocating Linux, the "goons" are the idiots like DuFuS, who are obsessed
    with Linux even though they claim to hate it. Jealousy?

    And, one man's opinion is just that, an opinion. What "Farley Flud" has to
    say about Linux doesn't really weigh too heavily on my mind when making my choices. What DuFUS has to say is even less important, if that's possible.
