You're whining about a handful compared to a mountain
Nothing is perfect. So you go for what is BETTER, and Linux, Firefox and OpenOffice are far and away better than the MS stuff you prefer.

Do you LIKE having MicroSpy running their fingers through your data?

Do you LIKE the way MS won't admit there's a problem until everyone else makes it impossible for them to keep denying it?

Do you LIKE the more-than-weekly warnings about security holes in the stuff you use?

I think that the answer to those questions is YES, or you wouldn't be crowing about the handful of problems in FREE Linux, FREE Firefox and FREE OpenOffice, while ignoring the mountain of problems in EXPENSIVE Windows, IE, Outlook and MS Office.

Value-wise, you've been had. How does it feel to know that FREE software has proven more secure and superior to the crap that you've been paying so much to buy?
