Did you really try?

Let me quote you:
2.Linux
1.cannot be infected with
1.virus's
2.malware
And emphasize your *cannot be infected*. As if it's something no one
will ever have to worry about... evar.

Well what free live support are you talking about exactly? You mention
IRC, chat groups, email, all under Linux but not Windows. You imply it
doesn't exist. Now if you mean live as in Freegeek, fine. But that's
not exactly what you said.

You either need to re-read what I said or open your eyes. I've said
nothing that should require any sort of proving. It's basic common
sense. You cannot claim Linux *cannot* be infected by viruses. You
cannot claim Linux can be learned in a day. That's an insult to your
peers. You cannot claim all Linux software is free ("1.ranges from
$0-$0000"). These are some of the things you claim that are flat not
true. IMHO, that is out of control. I am not biased towards MS. They
wouldn't get another dime from me if I didn't have to be acquainted with
their software to serve my customers.
