My best regards and

My best regards and congratulations to Pandaschnitzel for starting the very first "linux flame war" thread on this board (at least since I'm lurking here) in such a humurous and entertaining way, and even more kudos to the people who replied like they take him seriously.
You guys rock!! Maybe we just need Mr.Godwin to put a really stylish showdown to this great happening ;-)))

BTW, I recommend BASIC as the best operating system. It's easy to use yet highly configurable, supports the most important file I/O operations (PRINT, GOTO, you name it...), makes super-performant use of SMP (I recall using the main 6502 CPU and the sound chip both at the same time on a Commodore-64, and that was two centuries ago!) Not to mention the support for redundant compact-cassette streaming backup media (also known as DATASETTE among IT professionals), enterprise-grade high availability, and support for the latest virtual reality technologies (for instance, the brand new BERNSTEIN 12x8 character terminal presented at the CeBit last week!)

But let's be serious. Noone would really use windows 98 these days.
It would be like
- still teaching creationist doctrine in school
- still wearing VoKuHiLa's (that's Vorne Kurz Hinten Lang, or "mullet" for you non-ruhrpotters out there, see the infamous haircrimes website for further reference)
- still listening to 80's music (especially RICK ASTLEY!! LOL)
- still using "edlin" or "vi" for editing a text file
- still using 5,25" floppy disks or punch cards as backup medium

And always remember: DON'T FEED THE SCHNITZEL!!!
Muhahahhahhahhahahaahaahhaa!!!1!!!11

So it's true then?

At last, Microsoft put some confidence in Win98. I can now happily upgrade my systems to this OS from Win95, safe in the knowledge that it is stable and needs no support.

Thanks for the tip off. Work units should be whipped through from now on!

Pandaschnitzel - at least if

Pandaschnitzel - at least if it is the same person, and not just coincidentally another person with the same nick - is a known troll in the heise.de forum. Take that into account when replying to this threat.

excusé me but i throurly stated my clear and easy to understand arguments FOR windows. and i know where linux come from. from thee deep forest in SCNANDIVAVIA by mr linus torwald (by the way: WALD in GERMAN means forest...hihi**).

> and why its the way it is today just dont try to talk about it... its FREEWARE

and you know why???

because pooor idealistic-libertian computer science students work for FREEE!!! (mr. torwald is pretty rich...guess why...)

> and you dont pay hundreds of dollars for a big sortiment of bugs... and to say

Excuse what do you need a support for?

1. troublesshooting
2. problem "solving"
3. contact person for angry users
4. HELP HELP HELP!

now which company has a supporrt and which company CEASED their support?

LINUX or Microsofot?

read my above essay and you will get the answer.

on the current troll ranking

on the current troll ranking (sort key: plonk count) at http://www.funkbase.com/enilnoesieh he currently takes an honorless 11th rank.
Luckily his post are mostly troll-wannabes, making one feels sorry for him rather than enraged about his proclaimed positions.

Linux is only free if your time has no value. Is it better to compile money against the kernel, instead of comparing Frickelkram against bugs? Wahwahwah.

You will become a better person with OS X. You will suffer from an onion leather purse (sniff!), but you can still make use of all the CLI commands you learned from the books you read on the toilet. Plus you have something to talk big about with a Mac on your desk. Or, at least, you can feel like Steve "Master Of The Universe" Jobs.
