Am I the only one who finds this sort of ironic? You just used Windows and a
Windows app to create a t-shirt that incourages people to stop using Windows.
If Windows is so terrible, why didn't you just create this under Linux? If
Windows is really that bad, how come you buy expensive applications for it
rather then just removing it from your system?
I love Linux and I use it every day, but as someone once said way back on
alt.os.linux, "Linux is superior to Dos in every way, unless you want to run
word processors, spreadsheets, or databases."
IMHO, Michael
