What is this "no email" report about? Last I checked that was in relation to asking for or supplying ROMS.. Not to cripple free speech about Emulation...
Secondly..
DO NOT GRAVEDIG.. I
know this one is on the rules page.. This is the only warning I'm going to give to anyone in this thread.
Third... I'm not sure how anyone thinks they just "pwned" onecalledgod, because quite frankly, I should get a medal for having to read that enormous block of text. Half the points brought up in it are irrelevant and have nothing to do with what OCG was talking about.
To start off, if you are implying that super computers are running windows, guess again!
He never said that. He said 90% or more of computer USERS use a Windows OS of some sort. That is an indisputable fact of reality. Go to a store to buy a PC and what do you see? 95% of the computers sold in Stores are WINDOWS BASED PC's. 1% these days probably Lindows (or whatever its called) thanks to Walmart. The rest are Mac Notebooks.
Mac's are prohibitively expensive and the only people buying and selling them on TV are posh idiots who have money to burn and lack the mental accuity to figure out even a modern windows OS. It's NOT that hard!
Also. Where is your data that supports Mac's having a superior Operating System? Just because it is based on BSD and open source is largely a Linux based movement, doesn't automatically make it better. I want empirical data, no anti-MS fanboy conjecture.
Consumer PC's are outnumbered by Business and other Private machines? Data please... We live in a world where 1 PC or more per household is fast becoming the norm. The sheer number of people in the world would dictate that the popular OS in the consumer Market would be very close to, if not at the top of the list.. But this is all irrelevant, because we are not talking about Business machines, government PC's, underground super-industrial computers, or their operating systems. OCG's original comments were likely based on the assumption that we are discussing CONSUMER home computers, because that's what this whole damn thread is about - a product for consumer home computers.
Windows servers are rock solid, by the way.. Some guy serving Warez out of his dorm on Windows 98 doesn't count.
By the way, this may come as a shock to you.. But the day when Linux and Mac OS are far more popular than they are now, and are ready to seriously compete with Windows in the market - you will be seeing all these so called security holes and viruses "you would never get if you didn't have Windows" suddenly show up on these operating systems. The fact of the matter is the near entirety of the cracker and malicious coding resources around the world are focused on Windows based PC's..
But why? D'oh! Because MOST of the PC's used by consumers across the world are on x86 based PC's with a WINDOWS operating system.. The most populous OS will ALWAYS be the king target.
So please... go back and sit down, and if anyone reading this thread gravedigs again, I'll frigging ban you. :fuckyou:
