Well, for one, I said Windows, not Windoze. It's clear you are irrational
when it comes to any observations about Linux that deviate from your own and
your obvious anti-Microsoft agenda.

The fact of the matter is, as a new user, it's clear to me that Linux is not
ready for the desktop. It is command-line oriented unlike XP, the MAC OSs,
and even the various release of Widows 95 through Windows 98.

In advance, thanks for taking the time to respond, since I am assuming you
simply cannot allow this post to go unanswered. You just can't. LOL.
