Its pretty easy to point out opponents contradicting themselves when they're contradicting themselves constantly.

MtG, you are a bad umpire to my Boston Red Socks. You are the Mexicans to my Alamo - you can try, but I will always beat the Yankees.

You say you don't know anything about OSX, but you can make a judgement about who should use it? Now there's a contradiction.

You have the right general idea, but the wrong sequence. Remember, it is I who will always beat you. And just like umps, the league office is stacked on my side.

Wiggy Piggy, you BS more than a PSOE politican in Spain. No wonder why the PSOE blew it and did poorly in the elections recently. The PP still rules and didn't lose anything except one province, but gained one.

Oh man, this thread is surreal.

First of all, Glonkie said something bad about Windows. Then, Wiggy made a rare appearance to bushwack Glonkie. Then Fez joined in the fray.

This thread completely rules any Monty Python skits.

It's art from a MtG card, it appears. Just saw it on this Fantasy art site, and felt like I must take it. It goes great with the SMAC apolyton style, too.

No, customers are educated to buy windoze at schools. You want A, you'll use this old version of windoze. Then they'll come to work and yell, we need windoze we wouldn't be able to use other system.
It continues. Security disabled features because user haven't diploma thus they are unqualified to run programs or use it efficiently. Some people couldn't take difference between comp and microwave !_! .

Well I originally said 24 months, but later I reduced that to 6 months. But in the end only left for 4 1/2 months. Still a lengthy period considering and it shows I have no addiction here.

The thing is, .NET will actually solve that problem.

Who are you? I see you’re from Europe like Asher over here. That's great, make sure he stays away from American politics for me. Anyway, I was recently elected to public office and so my time here is going to be thankfully TINY. Thakns for asking though.

Asher, until you do some research on OSX I think we can all agree that having a bank that is popular and holds every dollar in the world but is also completely vulnerable to a terrorist crusade is risky, dangerous, and avoidable. Bring in Apple, and LIKE SONGBIRDS the bank will INSTANTLY BECOME HARMONIOUSLY SAFE. That is unless you know any better which you admitted you did not. So you are shooting more blanks than Russian battleship. End of discussio.

Do you have proof for these statements? Any proof at all? And let me ask.. why aren't banks using OSX? There is Linux (I know ashboy is not a fan of them) and there is also this new Longhorn OS coming out by Microsoft..

I use SuSE 8.1 Linux.. good system.. despite a few hitches, it is overall good.
