Editorial To me, it's a miracle how every tiny article on OSNews.com, or any other tech-site, ends up in people shouting all sorts of nonsense at each other like "Linux is gonna bring back Elvis", "Windows shot president Kennedy", "Linux kept the cold war cold" or "Bill Gates wants to buy the moon and charge people for looking at it". Do these people really know what they are saying, or are they just going with the Open-Source flow? Update: Rebuttal article here.

Re: Slow boot

The bootup is not slow and if it is your probably running services you don't need.

Okay...what's your bootup time and what distro of Linux are you using?

Not that I believe this to be a big issue, since Linux is meant to be run for long stretches at a time.
