As far as the "command line" crack, have you been in a cave somewhere? Compiz blows Vista's paltry childish interface away.

Interesting question which I am sure you must find really frustrating as you are working in a specialist field of computing.
Myself I am working on a project at home with Windows Longhorn, which is the development o/s Microsoft were working on pre-Vista in 2004, before they ditched it, god only knows why as its better than anything they produced before or since, and to think it wasnt released is an absolute crime.
So I am working with Longhorn, its specialist, there is no support from Microsoft whatsoever and trying to find information is a total nightmare.
So I can see that you may be experiencing similar frustrations.
Let us live in hope that both of our situations improve in the future.
Good Luck.
PS. Good evening redsoxer, I see you are being as pleasant as always !
PPS. Hi redsoxer ive downloaded and will be installing on to a spare PC at the weekend will let you know how I get on somehow.

Having a subsection to Computers & Internet that incorporated operating systems (in addition to Software) is a good idea. That way, Windows, Mac, Linux and other OS-related questions would have a suitable home.

Linux section or not, and even though I attempt to answer questions here, Yahoo! Answers is not a good place to get answers to your computer questions.
This site is inundated with preteen and teen idiots that have absolutely no idea what they're talking about. In most threads, the overwhelming majority of the answers provided are wrong because every kid and his mother thinks they're qualified to answer them. Yahoo only cares about volume on this site...not quality.
Having said that, I love Linux, use it as my primary operating system and would like to see a Linux section on here.

yes there should be OS section under software. i am also sick of people in the computer section of this site that answer questions that they dont know the answer to and nake up answers. the worst part is that the person who asked the question believes them.
