Computers,cars and motorcycles.

For example, when since 80's motorcycle or car is broken,,,

• The coil was broken. => Want a coil => I want to buy only coil => There is only Assy, no choice. And should to get a combined order. => Will take a heavy flywheel and coil.
• The car window open switch was a broeken. => I want to buy a switch => There is only Assy, no choice. And should to get a combined order. =>Will take all electrical system is on the inside of the door.
• Ignition timing is wrong. => CDI problem. => Impossible repairs => Exchange.

For example, when the old 60's motorcycle or car is broken,,,

• The coil was broken. => Want a coil => Search => To replace the coil.
• The car window open switch was a broeken.(Maybe no electric window open) => Adjust or replace the gear.
• Ignition timing is wrong. => Something wrong with the governor. => Re-adjust or replace the timing capacitor.

For example, Microsoft WindowsXP,,,

• When Excel often down. => I do not know. => Excel send report, But MS does not send any reply to the report, even fell frequently. => Re-install it.Because paid soft,don't want waste.
• When Blue back. => Not start. => I do not know. => MSN is going to the site, the comments that have rotation spots to hit similar problems. (Why MS does not support by phone?)
• When IE8 has been updated by automatic(People usually think so). => Can not browse some site. => Can not be downgraded. => Probably reinstall windowsXP.

For example, GNU/Linux,,,

• When OpenOffice down. (Sometime A little heavy, But never down) => So what the hell(This is free). => Re-install.
• When Kernel panic on wake. => Not start. => I do not know. => Ask for help from the community. Usually can find answer.
• When FF 3.5 is an updated itself. (But does not update without expressly) => Can not browse the site occurs. (Not currently), some plug-in is unusable. => Give up pulg-in or downgraded.

I am not saying Linux is old, Mostly Linux has the User. Microsoft has the Customer. It is your money that for supporting.

Who make good software free ! Although Bill Gates is saying. But paying money without support. Who attention to pay ?

Also, Now increaseing people leave for be freedom from Microsoft product net even pay.

The Delight of old cars and motorcycles are feeling that old maker build that fine and strong with builder pride and enjoy my own repairs and the custom, because it is able to be attempted understanding the mechanism.

This is open source in GNU/Linux. Able to read the source, you can try to understand. Analysis of electron injection program the ROM to try to tune in, here's Linux side. It was tuned to the ROM is replaced, this is a windows side and they want.

CDI will be replaced as maker say the manufacturer has failed. When strange Governor, who will happily tell us how to do, of course able to understand it yourself too. Because you can open.

There are some differences work and hobby. But we should have no stress.

I want be surrounded by known and open things.
