bah, is all I can say to that.

Most Linux enthusiasts bang on about how they're gonna take over the world and become more popular than "those capitalist pigs at MS" (or some other such crap), and bitch about Windows being so crap, when in reality Linux is just as bad, albeit in a different manner.

(i.e. - if I wanted to set up a mail server in Windows XP I could have done it in 10minutes, not 2hrs and many google searches later)

Probably. Then you'd spend the rest of the machine's lifetime fighting off viruses. ;-)

Meh, I agree that Linux is very picky about who its friends are in terms of userfriendliness but at least by learning to use it you learn something about computers. By using Windows you learn to point and click. Thanks but no thanks.

I don't think Linux is going to take over the desktop world. I don't think it should, though I do think MacOS X should as it's actually both a Decent Operating System (tm) and a Usable Operating System (tm). ;-)

The one thing I really hate about Bill Gates / Microsoft / Windows is that they've managed to get people to a point where they expect software to suck and are grateful for it and also don't know or even want to know about any potential alternatives.

Meh. Feel free to ignore this. I felt like ranting. ;-)
