Fedora, Mandrake, Suse, oh my!

Says it all.

The end of the article also says, because of the DOJ, MS can't release its new OS until 2007. :D May Linux get into shape by then, not to forget that the curent beta of the new Windows (Longhorn) must be distributed on a jam packed DVD and runs mega-slow even on the bestest hardware. LOL...

3. Ever since I crossed over from the dark side,

No Blue Screens of Death, no pop ups, no user errors, no worries.

Fedora rocks!

6. Your Info Is wrong

My copy of Longhorn 4074 Is 732 MB, the capacity of a DVD disk Is 4.7 GB.

And Longhorn performed very well on my system, It was only a tad slower than XP.
I was actually surprised at how fast longhorn was for a "alpha" build.
