Ive been sat for 3 hours waiting for GParted to repartition a 120 gig
drive. No feedback, nothing.
I have spent the past weeks grappling with openGL and Sound issues.
I never had *any* of this under XP : furthermore in years of using XP as
a development machine, it froze on maybe one occasion.
Linux is good : it aint that good buddy boy. XP can be bad, but it aint
that bad either.
