Hello,
What you write is common gossip without an evidence of competence.
Proof me wrong instead of just yelling "it is common gossip". Even if it would be "common gossip", sometimes even "gossip" has truth in it.
Fact 1: Just compare vulnerabilities detected in Windows XP, which also affect Windows 2000, since Microsoft dropped support on Windows 2000 last year. You will find that patches were released for Windows XP, but not for Windows 2000, to fix them. If you call that "common gossip" then it may be OK for you, but maybe not for others.
Fact 2: Furthermore I gave the argument that also third party vendors drop support sooner or later. Best example (to stay on topic) is AVAST itself with avast! Internet Security.
Do you really think, that anybody of the W2k-users is impressed of these phrases?
I don't see the sense of a forum of impressing anyone (but maybe you have a different understanding). Furthermore there is nothing new in my statements anyway, you can read up this information on a thousand places all over the net.
You're a reseller who wants to sale his goods. That's ok, but that's all!
Maybe you should take a look in our shop...do you find that we are selling XP licenses there? If you are searching for arguments so desperately you should take more time, to do some research in the first place.
We needn't ask you for that. Really!
Correct, that means on the other hand I don't need your permission write anything here either.
You really have a nice avatar, but sorry, in fact you're NOT one of these guys from the team.
What has my avatar to do with that. The avatar itself states that we sold the most copies of AVAST products within the last year, nothing more. I am wondering where you see the relation to the team of the vendor itself, the avatar explicitly contains the word "reseller"?
EDIT: I just read
your speech you made two days ago in the German part of this forum, where you thank your invisible audience for supporting you by private messages in regards of the discussion with me. You imply that I want to be "a big shot", that I would be shortly before a heart attack, you call this big cinema and that you laughed deliciously about this.
I can assure you that even if I reply to you in a detailed fashion and take my time to answer, it doesn't create any more agitation on my side than cleaning the dishes would do. I think your above implications show that instead of delivering good arguments, you do what most people do, when they are running out of good ones: They get down to a personal base and try everything to embarrass the others with that. I feel sorry for you that you need to lower down the discussion to that kind of level and I am also asking myself, if you really think that this is convince people, that I am a bad guy? In the end we are all one avast! family, try to support the product and make recommendations to people, to secure their systems. You should take a short minute to think about that.
And because of that, I don't want to discuss with you further here. OK?!
That's perfectly OK with me, it doesn't make sense if one side doesn't reply on arguments made before anyway. But you mentioned that earlier as well, I would prefer if you would stay with your decision rather than coming back again and again...with no arguments.
I think, every member of this community has the right to see, what changes you made.
Sorry, maybe we find someone who can make a Groklaw-kind-of documentation for you, if you are so offended by this. But anyway...it is nice to see that you spend some time to analyze my posts so deeply, at least I can assured of your full attention
