Re: [LI] PLS! LEAVE LINUX ALONE PC WORLD!! STICK TO WIN

[Siva Subramanian V <ssv@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Fellas,

    I,am with Atul. That's the spirit man !! :) :). In India people
worry
about what has happened in the past and don't think about what is to be
done
about it after the problem has occured or the mistake has been committed
..
Come on guys .... check what can be done about the CD's to make them
give out a
meaningfull instllation. We people on this list are fellas who
contribute in
Linux's future and so don't condemn about , PC-WORLD giving away a Linux
distribution that you cannot install.Try to rectify the error.

I,am not trying to be sarcastic and so don't flame this mail.

:)
Siva.
