Mission Linux Failed...... :(
After 3 Months with just Open SUSE on my Home PC, The day has come to install the Windows again. Reason...?? My dad...!!
One Fine day last week, My dad called me near computer and told he needs Yahoo Messenger, I said just a min, let me configure it in Pidgin. All of a sudden he started yelling at me regarding the difficulty in the OS regarding installation of softwares(Ya he used to install only spyware/malware/adware in windows) that this bla bla bla...., Started screaming that he wants Windows Installed now. I had no other Option than Installing Windows on my machine after listening to his 15 min yelling.
So i started searching for drivers CD's and everything which is needed to install Windows. Installed Windows XP. After i finished installation, Sister said she wants Linux..... :) So installed Ubuntu 9.04 for her and myself when i have to use the machine... :) After all work Slept at 11.30PM and around 1AM there was Lightning....!! MB fried it's Network IC as ADSL modem was connected... Boom... I guess Penguin was angry on Me... MB has gone for repair, So when it comes back it will have the Windows XP to run....
So Mission Linux is 50% success and 50 % fail for me......
What I feel now is, People who use XP and come to Linux find it a lot difficult to adjust.
In Linux users get No Nonsense Stuff, but people are addicted to bloated softwares...
