Ghada, I have only two

Ghada, I have only two comments about the edits you made to the english proposal:

  • First, I meant to write "Windows system" instead of "operating system" because a lot of people out there don't know what an operating system is and don't know that it's possible to have a computer that has no windows on it!
  • Second, there's no need to write "stupid system", I find it stupid and always call it so when I'm talking to my friends but that doesn't mean we should write it in the proposal. Let us be the bigger ones and not attack the other "proprietary systems", all we want to do is tell everyone that we have a much a better system here!

I support Michael in these

I support Michael in these two comments, but I think we should call it "Microsoft Windows Operating System", to give the people a wider expression about that, this is just my viewpoint anyway :)

Ghada's picture

I agree to write Windows

  • I agree to write Windows as well .. but as i told u before.. I did so considering the opinion of the guys on the meeting's day .. not my own
  • I know :D.. but I was sleepy and read "Windows" "Windows" "Windows" .. so just spoke up :D..

I agree that isnt suitable
