That does not answer the question I posed and once again you have avoided it.

I will try again because I can see you are finding it quite difficult to understand.

Do you really think people will switch to Ubuntu because of cries of worry with Vista and Windows 7?

If they're smart, they will.

You are very good at dodging the question put very simply to you. You should have been a politician. I bet you could slide your way out of a sewer.

"If they're smart, they will." Just doesn't cut it. That is your assumption of what smart is to a computer user, which means zip by the sounds of it. Rather presumptuous of you don't you think? Still you have not answered the question put to you.

I'm smart. I use Vista. I have never encountered a safety issue. I have been totally happy with Windows for years. Why should I change? "If it ain't broke don't fix it" I believe the saying is.

I know, this is also the case for millions of other users. Are you saying that all of those users are also not smart? Your tunnel vision is very apparent! I suggest you get out more. If you do insist on staying in all the time, try some reading instead of planting your nose, inside your computer, all of your life.

My answer to that would be I doubt it very much. What would you answer be?

See above.

That is not an answer to the question I put to you. Read above to explain why and try to take on board, reality this time.

Let's try once more, because I love to see a slippery snake backed into a corner.

You remember the question. Read it slowly this time, take deep breaths as you read it and exude concentration.

Do you really think people will switch to Ubuntu, in your wildest, wildest dreams, because of your cries
of worry with Vista and Windows 7?

I'll give you a clue this time. The answer is either yes or no. Now give me an honest answer in this fine newsgroup, (if you can.)

It only affects Windows 7. Good luck.

There you go again with your scare tactics. Told you, they're not very scary at all, as you can see from all the responses in here. I admire your tenacity and loyalty to a dying breed, but rats fleeing from a sinking ship, springs to mind.

Luck hasn't anything to do with it. Reading helps, you should try it some day but then you are so blinkered and biased, what would be the point? Also knowing quite a few MVP's and other REAL EXPERTS in the industry helps. There input is invaluable and as I said before, I have heard nothing but good reports about it. What's not to like? Let me reiterate, these are REAL EXPERTS, not wannabe's like you.

Try googling it if you know how.

Oh please give me strength! There are good and bad reports about everything on Google. That is just one outlet, that's how narrow minded you are.

Yes I have read umpteen reports on Google. Add to that readings from stacks of unbiased PC magazines, conversed with several unbiased MVP's, some face to face, talked to several unbiased experts in the industry, some face to face. Do you really think I would not of done my homework first. No, you know nothing about me or who you are talking to you for that matter.

Yes, one should be afraid of compromising one's computer and it ain't no stinking "scare tactics". With Ubuntu, one need not worry about this sort of thing. http://www.ubuntu.com/

But then you would say that wouldn't you because as I said before, you are trying to promote for your own ends.

And my ends are?

Well they are not biased towards Window's for a start, that sort of gave me a clue.

Your scare tactics do not scare me!

That's because you're stupid. Fact:

There we go, I wondered when the insults would start. A sure sign when one cannot win a debate, they result in throwing insults. How old are you? 3?

I'll tell you what I really am though, a realist. Look it up in the dictionary. Basically, it means that I do not believe in fairy tales.

Windows is malware prone. Ubuntu is not.

So you keep saying, I hope you'll be very happy together!

I'll stick with the best if you don't mind.
