[olug] funny, true but funny

[Eric Lusk]

Mostly it's better because it's less likely to crash... Still not good if you're doing important things, as "less likely" is not as good as "it doesn't crash", but since I'm mostly just gaming with Windows, it works for now.  (But I get good, legit discounts on my Windows purchases).

 I ran the Harry Potter books through a spell checker; none of those spells should work.

yes, ben. i have worked for DOD.
but i'm not sure what that has to do with anything.

eric, why is windows "better" now?
just gets worse and worse from what i've seen.
i would agree with your "just for games" statement.
i'm not the type to make a part-time job out of gaming though. life's too
short.

i'm down to one windows license (server 2003), and that will be the end of
my run with microsoft products.
