Ooh! That really got me! You little name caller you. I bet you're great
in the school playground. 'little liar little liar, pants are on fire'

Yes so, o biased one.

Not long to wait now.

I will reignite this conversation after the launch of Windows 7 and in the
months after that.

When we see the sales and popularity of that operating system, then we will
see who the liar is.

Happy hunting you devil. Scratch your eyes out!

You are lying. That is a fact, your silly reply doesn't change that. MS
is seriously worried about Open Source.

No, you are. I presented the facts.

A lot of cocaine is sold, too, but that doesn't make cocaine a good
thing to do. Same is true of Coca Cola.

So you are giving money to Microsoft for one of their products? Well, I
guess that Ubuntu just doesn't "cut the mustard" when it comes to computing.

Glad to see you are supporting Microsoft by purchasing one of their
products.

Just FYI.

Stubby - Are you named "stubby" because of your tiny little dick?

You know, the one you need a search party to find?

Well done Dano! I was wondering when the first person would notice that
Alias was spelt DELIBERATELY either backwards as so 'Slias' or as an anagram
of the name. Considering it is only five letters, it doesn't take a super
brain child on how to work it out.

In fact it took you longer than I thought it would you moron.

I did this on purpose to find out who would be first idiot to point it out.
Being as it is relatively easy to find out and also by using a five letter
word then changing it only slightly, I was counting on someone finding it
out. What took you so long?

Now let's contemplate all the other names. What do you think the general
theme was running through this little experiment. You guessed it

Alias', and considering all the other names were Alias' also, I thought I'd
make the experiment a little easier and you my little dip-stick, won the
prize! lol!

Now for the real test you plonker. Now that you know they are all Alias',
here comes the real test.

Now tell me my real name? Bet you can't solve that one Sherlock!

Saila - Alias spelt backwards

Anagrams of Alias
Alisa
Lisaa
Lasia
Alasi
Liaas
Laasi
Alais
Sliaa
Liasa
Asila
isala
Aisla

And the rest of the names, all made up and Alias'. The theme of the
experiment. Dano, you're a genius! LOL!

Why ? Because I replied ? For that matter Alias owns you.

Liberace.....at least, that's who you come across as.

He's dead you idiot! What does the 'S' stand for in 'DanS'? *Stupid*

I'll give you a clue:

It's not Liberace, its not Alias and it's not DanS!

There you go. That should keep you busy for the next hundred years ;-)

Saila - Alias - Alisa, Lisaa, Lasia, Alasi, Liaas, Laasi, Alais, Sliaa,
Liasa, Asila, isala and Aisla

question how does some thing free have anything to do with how good
something is by reading this then i will then see mac out doing windows since
apples cost so much more. so this is how im taking your comment on ubuntu.
price is something people always put a price tag on. what i think is funny is
how people pay me to fix the computer with how do you say it your sales dept
says its the best. wait a moment i just charged this windows user a bunch of
cash because he is totally stupid and bought a product that has all sorts of
problems with being stable because of viruses.... dont give me this ohh its
because windows has more users. that a load of crap its because windows lets
everything under the sun get installed and then causes crashes. im thankful
for windows it keeps my money comming in and while im using my cheap os as
you call it ubuntu i can spend more time working on peoples computers with
windows and less time fixing mine thank you microsoft for building a product
that keeps me working. i guess this is part of your marketing and being part
of being a big boy huh. as a linux user i do spend time helping people move
to linux and installing that software for free and helping them as they need
it. thats part of being a community and caring about fellow users. and not
having to feel bad because someone keeps getting hit with those viruses..
