He talks some shit, linux will never be an alternative to a pc gaming desktop lol.
Everything gaming just works on windows, there are fully developed games and direct x platform that just is never going to beaten.
Ok so linux is the best server software known to man, mac is an alternative to windows..but overall technically speaking windows is better (sorry fanboys).
Now let's talk windows...what the fuck they need to keep bringing out new versions every other year for i don'tknow, win 7 is a great os I just don't get what they can rwally improve on.

Revenue and shareholder bullshit - same as Call of Duty. Maybe Microsoft
should buy Activision then they can pump out annual Windows/CoD bundles and fuck off polluting the PS3. That will draw the kids away like flies to shit... WIN!
And no Pud, it's not just you - he initially revealed his cock-like inclinations when he was whinging about the PS3 hardware, no doubt to smoke screen over the abysmal Half Life 2 port, which is hugely over rated anyway - it was a bit dull if I'm honest.

agreed, half life appealed to alot of nerds back in the day, if you released it today as a new brand, it'd flop into the bargain bin a a few weeks, go and play a copy of it now, dull as fook LOL.

Yer the interface sucks. but to be honest its moving forward with todays Techo,
Alot of machines are touch screen interface, we sell them on a daily basis, for Companys.
you will be suprised how many house holds have these full Touch Screen Machines built in one, with Windows 7.
And its a bit of a ball ache
Agree on Charlie on the other half, just Revenue too
