I was on the family computer booking a hotel room for my trip to Edmonton this weekend... and out of no where, as I am clicking confirm, I get the Blue Screen of Death! It makes me so mad! That is so typical of Microsoft... works until you need it to... It makes me feel so much better coming back to Gentoo... I feel safer. Who else hates Microsoft/Windows? FP

It's kinda like a little hobby to me, and I dunno, I guess in the same way people work on cars, I like customizing and configuring my OS. Especially considering I have some very proprietary hardware that required some less then legal things to get it working :D Me too, once in awhile though. That's why my preferred distro of Linux is Gentoo. mephisto mortis Posted at 10:35 pm on Sep. 28, 2006 what hardware if you dont mind sharing? ajm51987 Posted at 10:18 pm on Sep. 28, 2006 Well, I don't hate windows, but I do prefer linux.
