You can do that stuff way faster on a Linux box. And with a lot less
risk and hassle.


Linux is generally crap. I know because I installed it on a couple of my
machines. It caused more problems using that crap and utilizing software
than anything I have ever seen. Pure garbage. Just about like that other
computer operating system called the Mac. I wouldn't have a Mac for toilet
paper. Every Mac I saw ran like crap and you couldn't do 1/3 of what you
can do on a Windows based Machine. That comes from a lot of personal
experience with Mac based stuff back in the 90s and early part of this
decade.

It might be great now but back in those days they should have called it
Crap versus Mac.


Linux and Apple have their place, and with your comments I doubt you have
ever owned an Apple.

The HUGE benefit of Linux over say Vista is Linux is not DRM invasive.
