Re: A85: stupid remarks
Were you regarding that question to me? Oh, I use Windows 98, but not
on my free will. My parents are not comuter literate and don't know
jack squat 'bout any computers.
I'm planning to use a Linux in the near future. Of course, I'm only 14
and don't really have funding yet for my "Linux Dream Machine" that is
planning to build a low-end computer of maybe 3-year behind technology.
P.S. Have you heard of BeOS? In PC Computing, it is said that is loads
in less than 10 Seconds...
