FLASH SUCKS, WINE SUCKS, THE GUI's SUCK, EVERYTHING IS SLOWER THEN WHEN I HAD WINDOWS ON THE SAME MACHINE
WHAT THE FUCK I GOOGLE LINUX DRIVERS AND I GET FAT NERDS ON DISCUSSION BOARDS, GOD DAMN, WHERE IS IT
WHY DO I HAVE TO COMPILE EVERYTHING MYSELF, WHATS WRONG WITH DOWNLOADING BINARYS, HALF THE TIME DEVS FUCK UP THE MAKE FILE ANYWAY AND I DON'T GIVE A FLYING FUCK ON C++ SO I CAN'T FIX IT.
EVERYTIME YOU HAVE TO DO SO MUCH AS MOVE THE MOUSE YOU NEED THE TERMINAL FOR IT. IT'S SO FUCKING ANNOYING, WHO THE FUCK CARES ABOUT TERMINAL COMMANDS, HOW IS THAT ANYMORE EASIER THEN CLICKING BUTTONS. THERE'S A REASON WINDOWS IS SO POPULAR, THEY GOT OUT OF THE FUCKING 80'S AND KILLED THE NECESSITY FOR THE COMMAND LINE.
GOD DAMN GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASSES AND GET THIS SHIT FIXED

I once knew someone that used OS/2 as his primary OS. He was never heard from again.
Actually, no. I've used several distros; Debian, Gentoo, Ubuntu (when it first released(for a year), then the latest version months ago), Fedora (though the last one I used was FC5). I will admit it beats Windows in some aspects, but imo, Linux is simply *not* better than Windows.

Have you tired a BSD based OS yet? Linux (Or as the crazy RMS like to call "GNU/Linux") is not the only free software OS out there ya know.

It's better than what they had before, but no, it's not good.

Speaking as a bash user and unix guru for over 20 years, I can honestly say that PowerShell is infinitely better than anything offered in the *nix world.

actually i have, and i'd take it over bash any day. but tcsh and zsh are both a lot better.

I thought PowerShell was really nice. The one thing I did not like was "The redirection operator '<' is not supported yet.", but other then that I liked it as much as bash for what I've been using it for.
In the interest of not desiring to crush a thousand skulls while using any Linux GUI elements, is there anything that looks like Windows classic? Plain, gray, sharp corners, no bulbous interface elements?
I'd love to use Linux, but it instills me with fury when I look at the shoddy interface elements. It's great for people who "feel" certain interface designs, but I simply want to use my god damn machine. Not have sex with the interface.

KDE can do that.
- Why the fuck is the Linux equivalent of the taskbar so god damn thick? It looks terrible!
- That system clock is fucking huge. WHY?
- The font, even though it's probably 10 point font, looks excessively large. I'd prefer Tahoma or Courier New or some open equivalent that doesn't look so much bigger than it should.
- Things in the status bar .. not properly centered and no visible segmentation? This is quite a pain for me.
Just general stuff like this. It's mostly about appearance, I guess. Even if things are the same exact size pixel-wise as their Windows equivalents, they STILL look bulbous, large, and disgusting. I can't explain how this works, but it's a major turn-off as someone that cannot stand anything other than plain, simple, crisp, concise things.
It seems like one or more of the above can be fixed, judging by some screenshots I've seen, but it's really.. why do Linux folk suck so badly at creating a good-looking simple interface? Microsoft has been doing it pretty well since 3.1/NT, minus the whole Aero/Luna thing. Luna is the worst atrocity known to man. Ever.

you can make it as thick or as thin as you want.
- That system clock is fucking huge. WHY?
you can make it as large or as small as you want

you can use whatever font you want.

what? you want the status bar to be in the middle of the taskbar thing? that seems kinda silly, but you can do that if you want. and it's not very hard to have it put separators between things.

stop blaming other people for the shit you create.
Oh great idea linux neckbeards. If someone doesn't like something THEY can fix it themselves and spend days configuring it to look how it should out of the box- because customizability and modularity at the expense of the user is a great idea to increase that market share you so highly crave right? Get the fuck over your little traditions stagnated from the eighties and use your combined man power to actually do something productive that people will be appreciative of. Oh wait, let me guess- if I want a version of linux for the end user I can make it myself?

oh great idea macfags. if someone configures something poorly and puts a screenshot of it on the internet, they assume it looks like that out of the box.
