- Would you say this is a bit bias?
-
- I have used: NT, Win95, Dos, win3.11, and os2 Warp. OS2 didn't
- recognize my computer?!? NT wouldn't run any of my software and I
- could only get the newsgroups through my internet connection. Dos and
- win311, well enough said. Win95 perfect? far from! There's some
- strange video conflict that causes the GUI to come up scrambled every
- now and then...
-
- MS supports solution? Did you scan for a virus? Oh please! I have 2500
- viruses, each well contained, you would think I have suffient scanning
- technology... I'm not an idiot! Ms support just couldn't seem to find
- the solution... But I know Ma Bell loved me, it was a nice 3 hour LD
- call! and damn I just happened to leave the red box at home..

- There are no perfect OS's stop your Bitching!
-
- granted, I haven't tried Novell, Unix, or Linux, and quite possibly
- another several thousand OS's not that widly know. But give me some
- time!
