But the fact is, the generally piss-poor Windows is quite simply the best money can buy for the average home user. And I'm not just talking AOL-using retards here... I mean your average 'smart' user. Linux? Tried it, didn't like it. I can strip a PC and rebuild it from scratch is need be, but I still felt that I had not 5% of the knowledge that I'd need to get the most out of Linux. I must confess to being generally impressed with XP, I'm even rather taken by the colour scheme... But as one of the world's top Non-Paying customers, I'm gonna have to hang on until I can get hold of a business copy. I'll give it a hammering then, and no doubt I'll walk out as unimpressed as I eventually was with ME. Microsoft aren't the enemy of computing, they are however the enemy of fair business practices. I'd like to say fod them, but they aren't going anywhere. If you're smart enough, you can build a car that runs cheaply and efficiently on gas. But it's just a little too much hassle for Joe Schmoe to use a gas-powered car. If you're smart enough, you can get your PC running well through Linux. But... Complain all you like. They have the monopoly and have reached a point of invincibility. We could have killed 'em in the Eighties when they were small, now they're just too foding big. Rat Bastards that they are. [/quote]
