People who don't like Windows.

Apparently, based on statistics, a lot of Windows users visit it.

"Linux reboot

I actually had to reboot a Linux machine tonight to get it to display
web pages properly. Restarting apache didn't do the trick."

LMAO. What a moron.

This is all you got, DFS?

Pathetic.

An idiot says he had to reboot linux to get web pages to display properly?

Did he bother to clear his browser cache???

FFS...

My P111 only gets rebooted after I install a new kernel.. sometimes up for
60 days or more... no worries, no cares... Linux is stable.

These guys missed that day in class when they lied and said "Linux only has
to be rebooted when installing hardware or upgrading the kernel":

So is Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003 and Windows Vista.

Read the reply to the reply to that message. Had services running that
the box would not support, apparently.

it too spontaneously rebooted."

Also a spontaneous reboot.

Extree extree from DFS, read all about it!

MISCONFIGURED OR FAULTY HARDWARE CAN CAUSE SPONTANEOUS REBOOT!!!!

2000? Usually.
XP? Less often. I've seen more blue screens and network problems on
XP than I ever saw on NT 4.0; in fact, XP is more like NT 3.5
as far as stability goes.
2003? Not bad. Needs a bit of care.
Vista? The word on the street isn't too good.

Alert the media: "advocate" blames hardware for Linux reboot!

How many times have cola idiots whined that if a 3rd party app takes Windows
down it's evidence of Windows inferiority? So what's the difference if it's
an app or a piece of hardware?

Can you reliably reproduce a BSOD on XP?

It's a rock.

hmmmm... I see virtually every OEM preinstalling it and selling it.

Nice switch around - but you got my point.

They don't have amuchchoice. XP is not going to be around much longer. And
naturally they'll sell the latest OS.

You made some subliminal revelations here. See if you can figure out what
they are.

Why would I want to?

No, I haven't even tried.

Not in our experience. It does work pretty well, in general. Win
2003's "clustering" is a friggin' joke, though.
