Actually, I can take the blame for that. I'm the one who started the "who-is-more-experienced" game.

Now that's the big money saver right there. That and it sounds quite fun. I'd love to try it, but unfortunately, with my level of skill I would make a high-tech toaster at best, if not a completely useless blob of parts.
And if by some miracle I got it mostly right, something would be hooked in the wrong way and it'd start screeching in pain and cursing its birth.
Let's face it, I don't know how the damn thing works, I just use em. That's also why I'd suck with Linux.

Did you not see those screenshots in that other topic?
Or is Quake EA?

I WISH I were as nerdy as you guys. I only got my own computer when I was 10.

The only thing worse than running a proprietary OS, though, is when your entire computer is proprietary. That sucks. That is why I'm not a supporter of Apple and most likely never will be.

Ah, but the thing about it being proprietary is, until your warrenty is void, you get to be a pain in the ass if it breaks.
