Guest Mestizo Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 The author gives the advantage to Windows in every single category, but his reasons are amusing. http://www.divisiontwo.com/articles/mcse2.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 :lol: that's the best divisontwo joke yet... only thing I'm worried about is that when clueless people are browsing around for windoze vs linux info, they will read that and get taken in... well it COULD happen... I mean, not everyone's as informed as we are... :? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnubie Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 IMHO the only area where Windows beats Linux is in games. :banghead: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendal Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 Yeah but if they read this and can't see the joke, they deserve Microsoft. I think these guys rock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

null Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 if they read this and can't see the joke, they deserve Microsoft :lol: I didn't think of that. You're absolutely right... if they think its really true, then I guess we don't need them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mestizo Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 I'm running XP on the monster rig I use at home--a brand new Compaq mid-tower--and the OS blazes like a Corvette. LMAO :lol: Compaq mid-tower...what a beast! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoopy Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 Yes, that has to be one of their best pieces I read from that site. I don't think it matters whether a reader takes it for fact or fiction --- the choice is obvious! I can envision MS revoking his certification, much like how they canned Dan Geer for speaking out on the security issues with MS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamCat Posted October 4, 2003 Report Share Posted October 4, 2003 This thing is a hoot. :lol: And the games gap is narrowing. I thoroughly enjoy my Q3A and Heretic II from Loki. :) And that's barely scratching the surface. Haven't even begun to work with the ports for my older ID games.

Guest Biepwok Posted October 4, 2003 Report Share Posted October 4, 2003 but with Windows XP I don't gotta worry about emailing viruses to my friends and family at all. The built-in email client Outlook Express does it automatically, in the background. Well, he's right about that one... although I guess that's not what he was trying to say :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeeDubb Posted October 4, 2003 Report Share Posted October 4, 2003 I laghed so hard I almost peed when I read this line, despite what some open source fascists will tell you As for this being a joke, I wish. Just look at the top of the page, "Jorge Lopez, MCSE" MCSE = Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer THis brain dead retard actualy belives that it's all true.

Ixthusdan Posted October 4, 2003 Report Share Posted October 4, 2003 :lol: Hey, everybody, are you familiar with Voltaire and the art of satire? This entire article is an excellent satire, even the mcse stuff. Look at the first paragraph. No administrator "does" anything directly on the server as described! I can't imagine any computer geek bragging about ripping cd's on the server. It is sarcasm. He even starts by talking about useability and immediately goes into an advertisement for running a robust network. I have three machines on my home network, and that's more than most of the people I know! Again, satire. It is a good and funny read! :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null Posted October 5, 2003 Report Share Posted October 5, 2003 My impression of the Jorge Lopez, MCSE was that it was just a joke picture... :? or, would they get in trouble with MS for using "MCSE" satirically ? Anyway, at first glance I figured the pic & MCSE were a joke. It's just an illegal immigrant, or a road worker or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
