Windows isn't for gaming. Gaming is for Windows.

Umm...why do you use 2000, and not at least XP?

If you fall too far behind, you can be a much larger target for malware.

Thank you, I couldn't think of a reason to tell him off for using 2000.

2000 is a mite old to use, but plenty of people still put it into operation. If you keep it well maintained, antiviral software, antimalware and don't do anything stupid, it could actualy be safer than XP. Y'know, security through obscurity :D.

And just wondering, but is anyone familiar with COPPA ?

It's that Child Online Protection Act. It means that people below a certain age aren't allowed to sign into a forum without explicit parental permission - it feels like some people are a little young.

Nevar ! Besides, I base most of my opinions on grammar and online that can be spotty - even for grown adults. Even attitude isn't a good indicator, there are plenty of innapropriate teenagers out there :D.

I use Vista. I like it more than XP, Mac, or Linux. I'm a gamer, so obviously macs are out of the question. Also, "I prefer to pay an expensive ticket and have a plane ready to fly at the airport, instead of having to put it together myself and providing my own fuel" (I didn't come up with that myself, read it somewhere ;-)), which is why I don't use Linux (Not that I don't like linux - I'd use it if I had a trained monkey to set up my games on it for me)
If you feel the need to insult/torment/threaten to kill me because of my OS preference... thank you for telling me to stay away from you. The "short bus" will be picking you up shortly. Don't forget your pills.

Good boy. You made a valid argument, posted valid points, and did it all without any flaming, and you equipped a flame shield.

You acquire:

+5 fire cape
Desc: Protects you from flaming
