Ubuntu is not off topic here. It's an alternative that frustrated Vista
users can check out. Note that the sign on the door says
"vista.general", not "vista.only".

You have rocks in your head? We are not afraid of Ubuntu. Absolutly not.
Ubuntu is just a TOY OS used by geeks to test their computer. To get real
work done, you need a real Operating System. I will never be afraid of
Ubuntu. Ubuntu will always be a TOY for generations to come.
