No Sense!?!
Just exactly how does Hal's post make no sense? I am sure most people are thinking that about your post. Hal explained what he meant very clearly, and didn't leave any room for speculation as to what he was saying. Windows 64-bit left him wanting. Makes perfect sense.
Making Sense?!? Your post is a load of stereotypical cliche run-on sentences, that even a 2nd grader could spot from a mile away. Are you a blogger by chance? Need some verbal kaopectate?
Your real name must be Rip Van Winkie (purposely misspelled), as you seem to have been asleep for the last 20 years. When was the last time you installed and used Linux? There are plenty of applications for it, and many of them are anything BUT free! As for your analogy of the front end-loader, umm...it has quite a nice GUI and is pretty easy to use.
Anyhow, everyone, please disregard Rndmacts future posts. They're not worth your professional time. Uninformed and over-opinionated!
