"You, my friend, are a complete dumbass. And just for posting this, I
belive you deserved to lose your so-called "Multi Million Dollar"
estate. there are a few things that sort of corrupt you story.
1. If you are soooo rich, chances are you'd be using a Mac. They're
prettier. And would match your lifestyle better.
2. I dont know what OS even needs more than 3 GB of space. Ive been
using Fedora Core for 2 Years now, with no problems.
3. Linux is VERY user friendly, and most mistakes are fault of the End
User.
4. Apperantly you didnt spend much time in school, for to learn how to
spell and use proper grammar, or even Capitalization for that matter.
5. About 7 of the ten "Helpful Posts" youve made, have been in tha last
2 hours.
Maybe you should stop being such a loser, and stop spamming the groups
with your Wintard jabber. And if you were soooo computer savvy, you
would know (a) What your system need to run the given OS (b) How big
the OS is (c) Can my CPU handle it...or (d) All of the Above.

It dosen't even need one. And even if the CPU is overclocked, it's thermal sensors would shut it down before it ever reached a dangerous temperature, especially the temperature at which motherboard material would combust. I've never experienced a case where a CPU burned down a house, much less a motherboard combustion. If his house burned down due to his computer, it was probably a result of a faulty power supplt, which operates completely independant of the software running on the CPU. If it is a joke (which it is) It was a very good one.
- Sparkfist, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3"How fake it seems"? I have never heard of an *nix overclocking without having to manually do it. That guy is just smoking some strong ****.
- Computer_Kid, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2This seems highly unlikely
- Jolene, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2I'm not digging this just cause of how fake this seems. First off, why does someone that lives in a "multi million dollar estate" post in Google Groups? Secondly I don't think someone that lives in a "multi million dollar estate" that has a lawyer would actually ever say "linsux"
That was a hardware issue, if it is true that is. Cool your systems correctly. Every computer, running whatever OS, has a chance to catch fire if not cooled correctly. Processors get HOT. There are water cooling systems for a reason... - blhack, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2I live in a multi-million dollar estate and I use newsgroups all the time.
Call me out on it, i dare you. - tarball, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1How has this even got 8 diggs. This is just the usual troll crap that appears on comp.os.linux.advocacy.
- Gman1223, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1That looks like BS funny tho
