		<description>I hate to feed trolls, but the homeless deserve a little TLC, now don&#039;t they?

st source c
I WAS using Windows 7 ultimate X64 on my last computer. I started having issues with drivers, then codecs, then Bill Gates started asking for money, then.....well, the list goes on!

Then, I found Linux!

Linux has its downsides (You must compile most source code, and that causes XML errors, and unsatisfied dependencies) BUT, It is technologically superior! How? I will explain:


My current PC is an old laptop, a Gateway CX2610, with an intel 915GMA graphics controller.....with windows, I got NO 3D ACCELERATION, AND NO AERO! With Linux...Full visual effects, full openGL support, and 3D gaming every day! HELL YEAH!!! All this, for free!</description>

		<description>For many years, I too was a Linus looser. But after my Lunix addiction drove me to a complete madness I accidentally stumbled across this site and it opened my eyes. THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY LIFE! I am now on a rehabilitation program aided by a free Microsoft laptop and cocaine. However, I still have a long way to go before my soul heals completely. Many nights I wake up in cold sweat from nightmares about 3D compiz effects, virus-free computing and many other horrors of Linus. But then I turn on my Vista 7 Ultimate laptop, fire up Firef...err IE8 and visit your site to give me hope and a cause to live for.</description>

		<description>Guys, sorry to state the obvious, but to the retards:

THIS IS SATIRICAL.

The owner of this website likes Linux, and is parodying the arguments Microsoft fanboys have against open source alternatives.

I personally use them both.

And I&#039;m 14 btw, lol.</description>

That has to be straight out of the mouth of the crazy general from Dr. Strangelove! Brilliant!

But you know man, what you really have to watch out for is fluoridation.</description>

		<description>&quot;Arguing on the internet is like running in the Special Olympics...Even if you win, you&#039;re still retarded.&quot; 
-- original author unknown (at least to me or I would give credit)

To the posters -- Crude language and violent responses to a website that you disagree with will not have the desired result. 

To the admin -- Very funny reading, thank you.</description>

		<description>Accidentally I installed PCLinuxOS. When I discoverd my horrible mistake it was too late. I uninstalled and reinstalled that glorious XP. A day later a van pulled up near the house. 3 men jumped out and left notes that I was to reinstall Linux or else....
They follow me close and I am sure they have spycams installed in the house. The police won´t take me seriously. Matbe they are part of the Linux terrorist squad too. I´m thinking about emigrating, but I don´t know if they will find out. Maybe they can also see me reading this wesite. I´m so scared. Is there help for me?
I wish of all this could go away....</description>

		<description>I have been crying tears of genuine joy ever since I found this site. It is truly the answer to my prayers.

I used to be into open-source, Linux, and Unix. I used to (gasp) run programs and such from the command line.

Then, I discovered the goodness and sweetness that is all things Microsoft (and drag-and-drop).

Now, I have managed to purge all cancerous open-source (sores? heehee) pollution from my company intranet. I have even managed to convince our CTO to make an edict stating that nothing but Microsoft applications can run on our servers!

Buwahahahahaha!

Now, we have reached nirvana. All is right with the world. And the licensing fees that we have paid Microsoft for all of this are a bargain, considering the reliability, security, and all-around customer satisfaction that we have gained in return.

Again, THAK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for this site!!</description>

		<description>&quot;Improper use of the word eminent...&quot;

It should be &#039;imminent&#039; but you have to dumb things down quite a bit when dealing with the Linux crowd. &quot;The&quot; becomes &quot;teh&quot;, and so on.

After further consideration, it was also decided that the definition of eminent as &#039;prominent&#039; could hold the meaning of the sentence.

&quot;...no such word as impurify.&quot;

Correct. My Microsft Office Word caught this one too, but I decided to keep it as-is. Anything else just would not hold the same flow.</description>
