Ubuntu: "Geez, we dumbed it down this much and you still can't figure it out?! Go back to Microsoft you dumb ****!"

Puppy: "Oh, hi! Come on in, sit down, make yourself comfy. We'll be glad to help you out. No worries."

We have an infamous one made by Nooby? I fail to remember but he assured everybody that Puppy had no Pinboard what so ever. Puppy only had a Desktop.

As we all know it is the other way around. Puppy only have a Pinboard and fail to have a Desktop. Smile

Making Puppy not run as root would shut up a huge amount of the forum questions.


That would be a sad day. If it weren't for posts questioning running as root, what would be the stimulus for arguing in its behalf?
