I keep hearing about how great Linux is and how it is community supported

around the various Linux USENET groups scares the hell out of me.

These Linux people seem to really have a chip on their collective
shoulders.
I asked a simple question about Ardour in an Ardour mailing list and I was
met with what could be called the great wall of china.

First they called me an idiot.
Second they told me not to use Linux XXX but Linux YYY and that my
hardware was not up to the task and that I screwed up the install and so
forth.
It was horrible.

So tell me, why the hell on earth would I want to use an operating system
and ancillary programs that are mainly supported by a collection of self
righteous fools who think that their **** doesn't stink and mine does?
Just for reference, my **** stinks...... Connie.


I don't know ... I wouldn't want to use windows either.
