General
please refrain from sending bogus letters or info to me. Someone sent something talking about someguys name that has a virus on it, and that it kills hard drives and all that shit, and to send it to others to warn them about it. Alright, I send the damn thing to everyone on my list, and when I got in just now, sombody was all pissed at me, saying dont send me no bullshit chainletters like this or something like that. Hell I didnt know it was, but that was no damn reason to fly off the fuck handle like that. So I sent another letter to the previous guy *a friend on my list* to dont send anymore letters or info that isnt true. damn, its bad enough when people yell at me, dont need someone else from somewhere else that I dont even know that good yelling at me too. Damn! DONT SEND ME SHIT LIKE THAT!!!! Keep it to yourself.
FA+

Also not the best for gaming and general everyday use. **tried Gentoo and Ubuntu, didnt see the hype for nux seeing it was just soo.. unpractical**
I wouldn't recommend it to someone dependant on windows applications though, as I wouldn't exactly call Wine that user friendly...
Also I wish I tried Ubuntu first.. I got Gentoo as my first linux distro and it was like learning a new language lol.
Honestly a friend that goes off at you over something like that is pretty retarded. I got your message, I read it and kinda knew it was a bit.. dumb. I just carried on.
Don't be mad at the person who sent you the original. Be mad at the people who overreacted when you sent it to them.
you can emulate a windows on linux
also msn aim etc ?
meh no matter
I probably would start calling it a emulator if it included x86 emulation, so it could run on non-x86 platforms.
sorry for my bad english
what linux you use ?
or unix eh ?
Also this is BS we are talking about :P Killer of PCs :P~
Also I dont want to come across as a linux basher, its a great OS. I've used it for a few years. Its just not a great OS for an average user. Awesome for dedicated game servers.
But it all comes down to the user. From what I know of Bigshow, what he does and the games he plays, Linux wouldn't do him any good. He's said in IM he wouldn't want to learn to do something in a different way, that he can already do now.. type of thing. Which I can see the point.
Also suggesting a completely new OS.. kinda silly. (Specially if the person wouldnt know how to use it)
I always tell people who send me that kind of stuff how gullible they are.
People forgot that big announcements would be done on news sites, not between contacts on a IM networks. :/
