Good post man
Not particularly flattering to Windows, but thats certainly not your job, but you came across as both truthful and not self serving, certainly something I can respect. But the honest truth is I associate with literally hundreds of people on a daily basis, some who are computer illiterate to most around here yet hardly a one ever has a problem, and Im talking mostly laptops on a university network here so the vulnerability level is high.

The problem most people around here is that they do not get the point that if your involved in fixing computers all you see is the problems, its rather like a Dr. claiming 99% of people are sick, and they know because they see them every day by the dozens. Trust me, in the outside world, there is hardly an XP user hurting that is using 'reasonable measures'. Sure the careless get messed up, and there are enough of those, but thats an issue unto itself.

Once again, I appreciate that at least you didnt rant and rave, but made your opinion in a straight forward way.
