i'm utterly disgusted with windows menu clicking setup!

I want to click on the menu and have it come down and STAY there!!,,,
But oh no!.,,, the slightest little mouse stray to the next menu or two
while choosing the sub menu and there goes the flashing of menus
all over the place in anticipation,,,

Is this same flashing setup in Linux?

There are times when I yell out loud,, " BILL GATES YOU ,,,,,,,,,!"

Anyone into drawing programs who feel the same way?

I'll take the menu setup from Windows for workgroups with XP please.

ZombieJeebus I doubt that you have ever even seen a Macintosh. I run several games made for Windoze on my iMac and even the flight simulator runs better and faster on it.

I was forced by where live to use a PC for over 6 years and I have not found anything that the Mac does not do better than a windows system. Games, spread sheets, text, video editing, photo editing, all of it is better and faster on the Mac. Even better, the few programs I have had to pay for are cheaper than their window$ equivalents. Yes, the Mac does cost more. But the quality of the hardware and software tells us why. The cost after purchase though, go way down. Then the lower frustration level makes it all worth every penny.

What's up with the servers? I'll check back when CBS finishes its defrag.

It's only human nature to attack the people who are doing the best at something.

The only thing Microsoft does well is market. Unfortunately, most people are suckers for a good sales pitch.

I've been threatening to migrate my network to some form of Unix since XP came out. The release of Vista made it official. We'll be running on FreeBSD by Independence Day (timing not a coincidence, BTW).

If you use a computer for "half the day" and are still on a PC, maybe it's time to learn what real computer is like. Get a Macintosh with OSX and stop worrying about all the things that Windows makes seem so hard.

I do a complete backup of my hard drive every day. It usually takes about 5 minutes. Everything is copied onto an external drive that is bootable because it's a complete clone of the internal drive.

Microsoft has never released anything that was not as buggy as an ant farm. I will never have to use a Micro$oft program ever again. "Praise god Almighty, Free at last! Free at last!"
