OK, I'll try your logic Bill. Whoa...you get over *36 million* hits
when you Google "I hate Windows".

Yet over 90% use Windows and less than 1% use Linux. That is almost a
hundred to one. So when you get around 100 million hits, now we are
talking. And I want to use Linux, but it isn't ready for prime time yet.
It fails too much as a general purpose OS. It only does what a wimpy PDA
does (just larger screens and keyboards).

The Ubuntu manual states that it only does MP3. WMA, and AAC formats.
How in the world are you going to attract anybody with just three file
formats? And I can tell you WMA doesn't work right. So that leaves just
MP3 and AAC. I know MP3 works, but I have nothing in AAC format to test.
Maybe that one is dead too for all I know.

Say, do you use Thunderbird? I am getting a lot of
screen flashes with it under Ubuntu.

Screen flashes? Hey, I'll bet you have a defective 'flash' drive. Boy
that spoils your perfect record huh... ;)

Then I install it on a hard drive and the same dang thing happens, then
what? Just more broken promises?
