Except for the bluetooth stuff, and some of the messaging, I was doing
all that back when I was running Win98. Way to go Ubungi.

And you were having to reboot frequently, defrag your hard drive
frequently, use a registry cleaner frequently and cleaning the 98
install of malware frequently. No, pal, it's not the same.

Since then, MS has fixed the reboot necessity, defragging and cleaning

in bot nets and 3 out of 5 Windows boxes are infected with some kind of
malware. Way to go Microsoft.
