I think the time might be ripe to start a 12 step recovery group for Windows Users. I would be happy to lead meetings and make myself available as a sponsor.
Here are the 12 steps:
Windows User 12 steps to recovery:
1) Admitted we are powerless to use MsWindows on our own terms and our OS had become unmanageable.
2) Came to believe puppy-linux could restore our computing experience to sanity.
3) Made a decision to turn our devices and drives over to the linux kernel, as we understood it.
4) Made a searching and fearless inventory of our OS installation abilities.
5) Admitted to the forum, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our bugs.
6) Were entirely ready to have pups, dogs, and KL's remove all these defects in our OS environment.
7) Humbly asked how to restore our setup.
8) Made a list of all scripts we had run, drives we had corrupted, and became willing to reformat them all.
9) Made clean pup installs to drives wherever possible.
10) Continued to take personal inventory, and when we borked an install, promptly admitted it.
11) Sought through RTFM to improve our installation abilities as we understood them, seeking only for knowledge of well structured partitions and the power to debug them.
12) Having experienced computing liberation as the result of these Steps, we tried to carry this message to other Joe Users, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
NOTE: moderators feel free to move this post, as it IS satire of course.
