After trying to set up a webcam on my sister's PC, windows gave me this:

C'mon, even for windows, don't you think that's a little blunt? ^_^

I think whoever programmed Code 11 was having a cynical moment.

[Gortef]

more or less

[kasperl]

lady's and gentelmen, that's why i switched to linux.

[Setekh]

That's a gem. Moved.

[Odyssey]

Thanks Setekh.

Kasperl - I don't think my sister would appreciate it if she woke up one morning to find her computer running Linux. She gets very confused whenever she encounters one of my boxes running Linux or FreeBSD...

[Zeronet]

Confused and frightened and fearful, as one should be when confronted with the demonic creation known as linux.

[Flipside]

I think that one should be called the 'Poor Ickle Windows' error

[Kazan]

/me shoots Zeronet -- bloody n00b

[Admiral LSD]

That's funny coming from a Red Hat user

[Liberator]

That got a chuckle out of my instructor.  
And me to, of course.  

It's blunt and impossible to misinterpret, just as an error message should be!

I couldn't possibly agree with you more. One day, they will stop following that retarded penguin and let the Daemon show them what true power is.

Seriously, whilst I dislike Linux for its complete lack of standards, its a better choice than Windows or Mac for anything but gaming and graphics work.

I'd love to try FreeBSD but since nVidia don't supply a BSD version of the nForce LAN driver (and I don't want to replace my perfectly good onboard LAN with a PCI card just for one OS no matter how good it's claimed to be) it'd be as useless as mammaries on the male bovine. Though if the BSD guys can make something out of this then I'd try it in a heartbeat.

[mikhael]

I fear integrated LAN, video and sound. These things are an evil beyond compare.

[Kamikaze]

The problem is, it seems that most affordable and decent AMD (or Intel) motherboard solutions have integrated something. Server boards might lack the ( however they're usually hellishly expensive as well) and even they're starting to get integrated stuff.

[Liberator]

From what I understand, the Soundstorm thingy on the Nforce is actually built into the south bridge, thus taking a step out of the processing.  Also, the Nforce2 as a whole product seems to be decent and almost designed for the Value market.  I mean you've got decent video and good sound on a board that has been acknowledged as one of the best available for AMD stuff, I mean slap a processor and memory on one of those babies and you've got a machine that, while not uberfied, is still leaps and bounds available from other companies at the same pricepoint.

Just get Windows XP! Its t3h l33t.
