That's gibberish, but it seems to indicate that you're still unwilling
to admit your lies.

One of the many lies you told was that Intel's 3945 wireless chipset
isn't fully supported; you haven't retracted that lie despite it
having been thoroughly debunked in this thread.

The only stuff you've said that's not a lie are your opinions that
Linux is "rough around the edges". Since your opinions are based on
your own lies and fantasies, it's tough to take them seriously.

You ARE lying when you say that Ubuntu won't work with your wireless
adapter. It does, and we've seen irrefutable evidence to prove that it
does.

It takes a few thousand years to get the bugs out of anything.

By my standards, every available operating system is still rough around
the edges.

And that is yet another lie. LOL.

And this, my friends, proves once again that Bear has been lying all
along about his experience with Linux.

You see, one *does* *not* need to even open the terminal to use consumer
oriented desktop Linux distros like Ubuntu. If he had any experience
whatsoever, he would know that to be the case.

So he either has a) no experience whatsoever, or b) has some experience,
but choses to spread FUD instead.

I'll go with A for a thousand, Alex.

This has been a productive weekend. My work here is done.
