Good idea. Ask a Linux question, and you'll get help, if somebody has
any ideas. But as you've already seen, make any comparisons with another
OS that do not say that Linux is superior, and you'll just get flames.
The question is ignored. Many on the Linux newsgroups aren't interested
in hearing about Linux's possible shortcomings, places where someone who
also uses another OS can see it could use some improvement. They think
it's just fine the way it is.

That's the way it is with zealots. You'll find the same attitude in the
Windows newsgroups. Personally, I think Windows is a piece of crap when
it comes to most things, but I'm also willing to admit there are some
areas where it is better than Linux - for now. But I've only been using
Linux for six years. I don't have my idol and altar set up yet.
