- I wouldn't've objected to this post if you had left out the word "fool."
- In my reply (I haven't read more than one other), I did NOT knock Windows,
- I simply stated a suggestion to get this guy's computer to run right. I
- happened to state my opinion that DESQview is better than Windows.
-
- A lot of people would agree with me. And a lot of people would agree with
- you. There is no way to determine, prove, etc, that either multi-tasker
- is better than the other, or that either GUI (actually, technically,
- DESQview has no GUI, which is part of the reason why I prefer it) is
- better, or that any particular facet of one is better than the other.
-
- If you even THINK of replying to this, do it in one of the several
- philosophical newsgroups so that you can be properly flamed.
