[GLLUG] Why I AM a Linux addict

[Eduardo Cesconetto]

According to google, this is what addiction means(just a few examples):


a.. A chronic, relapsing disease characterized by compulsive drug-seeking and abuse and by long-lasting chemical changes in the brain. [1]

a.. Strong emotional and /or psychological dependence on a substance such as alcohol or drugs that has progressed beyond voluntary control.

a.. Uncontrollable craving, seeking, and use of a substance such as a drug or alcohol.

So, taking this in consideration, and replacing drugs and alcohool by Linux, I came to the conclusion that I am a Linux addict, it's the only explanation to why once every month or so I destroy a good working Windows partition and give Linux another shot, maybe with a new distro, or a new version of an old distro, always searching for the ultimate "high": an actually 100% working and with all my hardware working wright, that's actually not going to break with the next update...
