  5. @omni I honestly don't remember much about what I used. Just that it was some version of Puppy from around late 2010 running from a live CD. And while I personally don't see how having a system with nothing but a web browser can be useful, I'm not gonna argue that it's an inherently bad idea.

  8. @omni Lol this entire conversation reminds me of my dad trying to teach one of my uncles how to use a computer. He was trying to use Facebook to check his email. Poor guy.

  9. @omni It got lost under your angry rant about Windows being horrible and Linux being "superior in every way". Sorry.

  10. @omni If you don't mind me asking, how old is your friend that you can't just give him a Netbook and tell him to go nuts?

  11. @omni You're saying it needs little maintenance and when I bring up a counterexample you handwave it off as irrelevant? Your logic is infallible. Oh, how I wish I was as good at arguing as you are.

  12. @omni If he just needs a browser get him a cheap phone, not an entire computer.

  17. @omni Of course linux doesn't need antivirus, that's because nobody cares about it enough to write viruses for it

  25. @omni If you've got money, and you spend it on a thing you want, is it really wasted?
