Using my MS computer, I went to the linux newsgroups to ask questions.
That's where I found some of the rudest people I have ever met. Rather
than assist with the version I was using, most suggested another
version, and I would end up in the middle of flame wars. It was only
a matter of time before I said "this is bull****", and gave up Linux
forever.


Same thing on the Microsoft newsgroups.

That is, in (for example) microsoft.public.windowsxp.general, you'll find
those same rude, pompous Linux users.

For every question or observation, their answer is: "You're an idiot for not
installing Ubuntu!"

They don't tell you that you have to put a bone through your nose to make it
work.
