The entire world's not evil and out to get you, and there isn't some gigantic coverup involving the millions of people who use Linux all out to get you. You have to admit you're being ridiculously paranoid. Linux is used more commonly than Windows worldwide for the most important and delicate businesses and servers, even at Microsoft's own headquarters in Redmond. Linux isn't some small-time operating system made by a few people sitting underground in their basement, it's a huge server operating system and a growing replacement to Windows in that field. Many would laugh at such an accusation but I'm simply trying to explain to you that such a thing is quite impossible.

I am not being paranoid, im being realistic. Sorry to break it to you but the world isnt some kind of safe haven where everyone wants what's best for everyone else. Everyone was talking about how Microsoft was so good when it first started up. How do you know that wont happen with Linux? Or even if it's happening at this very moment. I mean c'mon...

Of course you're welcome to your viewpoint -- I'm just trying to offer you an alternative you may or may not appreciate, and since you are asking me questions I'm simply trying to provide you some answers. |
You talked to me the other day about not ramming things down peoples' throats. Why are you ramming Linux and Firefox down people's throats?
