    i've seen this before, but it's still classic
    Moe, please don't lock this, it's just too good!
    Here's why Linux is easier than Windows:
    Package Managers! Apt-Get and Portage (among others) allow users to install programs MUCH easier than Windows can.
    Hardware Drivers. In SuSE, ALL the hardware is detected and installed automatically! How is this harder than Windows' constant disc changing and rebooting?

    that is really funny. Thanks for a little humor for the beginning of my day.
    All right, brain. You don't like me and I don't like you, but let's just do this and I can get back to killing you with beer. All New Users Read This!!! If you have a grub problem please look at GRUB MANUAL

    I've seen this hundreds of times. And it just gets funnier and funnier every time I see it.

    It is still a classic video, funny after all these years.

    Life is complex, it has a real part and an imaginary part.

    I recall cruising around in Google Video and I saw a video of Bill Gates on the Conan O'Brian (sp?) Show. This was a bit ago I guess because he was trying to show off the new windows media player center for XP (I'm guessing because it had the silly color scheme of Windows XP) on a big screen tv so everyone in the audience could see it. It suffered multiple crashes and would not move, all the while Conan kept poking fun at him saying "Who the hell runs that Microsoft!?" it was the funniest thing I had ever seen. Bill's face just went bright red and he slowly sank down into his seat.
