i'm telling you it's over

[hoveringsombrero]

i'm leaving windows.
some years back i posted that windows is like an abusive boyfriend.
you hate him, he treats you badly

but you just .... can't ... live without him.

well at some point (xp) i got really stupid and married the abusive boyfriend

well
i'm getting a divorce now.
ENOUGH!!

it's not going to happen overnight, i've been with this OS pretty exclusively
sans a few affairs
for almost my entire life with computers
and i've hated it since win98 came out

yet i stayed
stuck in an abusive relationship with this damned unstable psychotic OS

and now it's newest wardrobe
XP

IT MOCKS ME WITH IT'S HAPPY LITTLE ROUNDED WINDOWS
ITS BRIGHT AND SHINY GUI

pretending to be user friendly
look at me i'm pretty i MUST BE STABLE AND EASY TO GET ALONG WITH.

fuck you windows
FUCK YOU AND THE CODE YOU RODE IN ON
i'm finished
i'm done
i'm leaving you.

it won't be a quick transition but i assure you, before the year is out
WELL BEFORE the year is out
i will have left you for good.

Run linux.

knoppix is a good distro that runs entirely from CD, it never even uses your HD (unless you tell it to).. That way you can get the feel of linux before doing the whole "format c:"

I think the website is www.knoppix.org It autodetects most/all hardware, go check it out
