I'd badly like IE to disappear from the face of the planet.
Now that might be something we can all agree on.  |

Oh, you mean innovation like OS X, which is a flavor of Linux, which is a flavor of Unix, which has been around since at least the 70s? No, you're not going to find any of that on any of Microsoft's websites.
ORLY? I thought you were mentorsports, not azcowboy.  Oh, I forgot. Linus Torvald got absolutely no inspiration from Unix. Now who's missing the point? You're near Berkeley right? |

I missed the point of what you bolded. You're saying that OS X is not a variant of Linux rather than saying that Linux isn't a variant of Unix. I guess I got confused since I vaguely remember hearing Appleheads argue that whatever Mac OS was around at the time was actually Linux when Linux was coming into vogue. Perhaps I'm not remembering it correctly, since I really didn't give a *feces* about silly debates like this. |

I have no idea what any of it means, but here's a +1 because it made me laugh.

I really didn't give a *feces* about silly debates like this.
That's what actually confuses me. From time to time I offer an opinion on Microsoft (other subjects apply here too.) It's not directed at anyone in particular and not meant to offend unless of course a multi-billion dollar corporation has feelings. It's just me yacking and floating my thoughts. If you or anyone else here worked for Microsoft I'd refrain as saying "Microsoft sucks" or some such would be fairly rude. Obviously you can find my opinion useless and think it completely wrong but I wonder why you feel the need to post "LMAO Bull*feces*..." and so forth. It's as if you take my opinions on a variety of subjects as a personal affront. For not giving a *feces* about silly debates like this you sure expend a lot of energy challenging me. It's cool if you think I'm a dumbass. Get in line behind my wife and friends. Probably the best way to deal with me and my stupid opinions is to ignore me/them. Just a thought. I really should just blow off your retorts, remain above the fray, but at times I struggle to just step back and walk away. It's a character flaw of mine. I'm working on it. |

I was actually referring to the silly debate about what Mac OS really is--whether it's its own animal or a variant of something else. I couldn't remember if the "something else" was Linux or Unix. THAT's the debate I couldn't care less about. As for your bashing Microsoft, I don't take it as a personal affront, but I guess I tend to speak out against what I perceive as zealotry. Call it my character flaw. |
