RE: Hardware hassles: Linux vs. Windows



lol.....

Sorry win2k/XP cannot find any disks....press f3 to exit and reboot....

Sorry your hardware is not supported by win2k/win2k3.

This product is obsolete we will not be releasing drivers for win2k win2k3, buy a new controller for just $999.....

The updated Certified Microsoft driver you just installed has just fried your raid5 array....

     Of course with WinXP you have DRM and the dreaded 3-strikes problem. 
They might have licked that crashing problem (har, riiiight) and just traded 
it in for their own set of shackles.  I have no experience with XP becuase of it.

     Now, 2k.... don't get me started on 2k.  Anyone who says Debian is hard 
to install obviously has never attempted a 2k install.  *shudder*
