Re: About Virus..



and some of us like to play games which are only available for MS OS's. I am
NOT going to give up playing those games because they're not available for
linux (which I do use BTW, on both computers I use, which is 2 of the 3
machines in my house). Also, in my opinion Linux is not good enough for the
'average' person to use. My parents sometimes can't figure out how to do
something in windows so I have to help them. They'd have no chance with
linux as it is at the moment.

Anyway, since this a GAME PROGRAMMING list, can we (including myself) stop
argueing about OS's and keep to game programming? I'm already on a linux
list if I feel like getting into a OS war.
