the worst operating system you can buy. not only does it cost a lot of money, but if you don't have it running on a top-of-the-line computer, it sucks. those of you who say it doesn't freeze up probably haven't tried it on a 400 mHz laptop - which it should run on, according to the system requirements. contrary to popular belief, it is not easier to use than linux, mac os, or any other os because the reason people have such an easy time learning to use new versions of windows is because they are familiar with the old one, which is the same except for that lame prarie that it places on the desktop, along with some other aesthetical changes.
while windows has been around much longer, linux has grown so fast that people are already considering switching from windows. windows may have more programs and look better(? i don't think so but maybe some do), but linux has the edge on security and stability and does what it should - all of which is what most people want and what all should expect from an os.
1. microsoftie: if linux is better, then why hasn't everyone switched to linux?
thinking person: because most people just believe what they hear - they never try linux, they just believe what they hear about it.
2. microsoftie: windows xp doesn't cost that much, it's only $150. that's not bad.
thinking person: but you also have to buy antivirus protection and office xp, which together will cost about $300.

Something really crap, useless, or that doesn't work properly. Possible synonym for mindfuck.
OMG, did you see Leeds United last night on Match of the Day? They were really Windows!

An operating system created by the Microsoft Monopoly. They are only after taking your money adn screwing over your computer at the same time. O.. but I forgot.. they issue patches... and then they make more patches.. and then they make more patches... and so on and so fourth so that you think you are realy improving your computer when all your doing is updating the problem. Prefer an etchasketch over a PC running windows. Hell.. even Microsoft doesent even run a version of Windoze on their servers.
"O.. you run Windoze?....O God I'm so sorry..."

Microsoft's answer to X Windows. Many people claim Windows always crashes, the only reason Windows crashes is due to poorly 3rd party written drivers, and 3rd party software written by careless programmers.
Windows 98 Second Edition is a very stable operating system.

The space of time associated with the most efficient opportunity to poop. Refers to both time that is convenient (opportunity) and sense of urgency to dump. Pooping before or after the window usually results sub-par pooping amount or satisfaction.
"I better go take a dump now, I don't want to miss my window."

A operating system that is widely used aroudn the world, most games and applications require it, and therefore you can see its usage. Mind you that buying windows is expensive, and you will become a bum with a copy of Windows XP Professional
BOSS: JERRY WHY AREN'T YOU WORKING
Jerry : My computer isn't working
BOSS: DAMNIT, IT WAS WORKING YESTERDAY
Jerry: Yeah, well Windows is like that, works one day, and doesn't the other

An operating system to run your computer for you. If you are moderately computer-savvy, e.g., you understand that buying and installing anti-virus protection, internet firewall software, spy-dectection software, etc., actively safeguarding your own computing environment, e.g. you don't use ANY vendor's email client software, open attachments with extensions like .exe, etc., don't subscribe to file-sharing networks like shareaza which put BIG FUCKING HOLES in any other security software you may have installed, then you probably won't experience all the horrid "crashes" reported by the naysayers.
If, on the other hand, you're an unemployed software programmer whose resume was shit-canned by Microsoft and you have nothing better to do with your day than find "holes" in the OS, you'll probably find what you're looking for. As for me, I like to look at beautiful (a-hem) pictures and movies, keep track of my finances, get information off the internet, and just generally have a GAY ol' time on the internet. Windows XP couldn't be better or easier to use.
And P.S. Will somebody please kill and bury Quicktime and Apple? Talk about way past their prime...they're like a Jaguar competing in an Acura and Lexus world...nobody's saying the Jaguar's aren't pretty...it's just that the Lexus will actually GET YOU THERE TOO!!!
1) I bought one of the first MAC's ever. No...NO...I did NOT buy a LISA!!
2) Steven Jobs is a GOOD guy, Bill Gates is a BAD guy. And their respective bank account balances clearly prove the point!!!
3) No one will hire me because I refuse to accept the project manager's directives. So, instead, I've installed LINUX to facilitate my hacking into WINDOWS-based PCs, just to show how suck-ey their god-damned OS really is.
4)The Tower of Babel is infinitely more desirable than a single, standardized approach, if you really care about instruction sets, for Christ's sake!!!
5) Let's win the marketing war by cornering the education market, so all those poor school-kids can fuck around with apple software for ten years until they graduate into the REAL world.
