Gowator Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 (edited) I was just over at Yahoo cecking my yahoo mail and the online survey comes up on SPAM.... OK, I wanna do my bit and Yahoo are a valid MS alternative for web mail and stuff. So I take the survey... complete waste of time.... since I dont use IE, have I ever had a virus...no I dont use Windows !!! etc. etc. You'd think they would culture the non US /MSN stuff, especially since AOL was bought out but no ? If we all wrote at once do you thionk they'd notice ? update (as advertised in UK) BT Yahoo!

SoulSe Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 Is it so difficult for these companies to find out if their stuff works with Linux and list it on the compatibility list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowator Posted June 14, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 its annoying becuase this is a DSL service which could work perfectly well BUT also because Yahoo made their money and business on Opensource software. It wouldnt be hard at all but ..they could at least say 'although we do not support the installation some customers use the service with linux/BSD/Mac' but its too much hassle to do even that and be seen to support the OS they used to make their billions!
