LINUX the better software
Jeez, I just can't wait until Linux gets as popular as Microsoft Programs and our out of work software writers get bored with Microsoft Bashing and turn their experience on to Linux boxes and Linux believers get hit with the truth about their true reliability, viruses.

It's all a terrorist action.

If it wasn't Windows, it would be something else. I bet Linux has the same kinds holes in it, the holes that "hurt" users, but since no one cares and no one that has Linux on their systems has anyhing of value to software writers to make a virus that hurts universal Linux users, I guess this debate just goes no where, huh? Since Linux doesn't have any kind of profitable market share that a person would feel the need to write a virus to infect others with terrorist activity.

Oh wait, UNIX has bugs, otherwise why would "hackers" want to get inside these old UNIX systems?? If Linux is affordably replacing UNIX, and the companies that have Linux in place for their UNIX based servers have money or files that someone else wants, jeez, I guess someone will write a program that gets into those places and said viruses seem to be the easiest way of this.

This message of mine is going to the same place as Linux is going to replace Microsoft Windows... No where.
