Oh really? Oh really!
Take a good look in a mirror when you say that. You're just as bad as the anti-MS crowd... your constant bashing based solely on misinformation.

Linux, an OS whose purpose is not to work with others. Proving the point AGAIN that you are 100% misinformed.

Samba makes Linux work with Windows systems for the purpose of sharing files/printers. Linux has the capability of using virtually every single filesystem available from your standard Windows FAT32 to Silicon Graphics' XFS. Mono is the project to make Linux interact with dotNet.

Linux can work with any other system on a network. its programs are open source meaning they can be compiled and work on any other system. They even work well with each other... exporting the display of a program to another Linux or unix box is a built in feature, but you can even export it to a Windows system if you have the right program installed.

Linux most certainly plays well with others. Contrast with Windows which only works with its filesystems in its own little world and you can see where you are once again misinformed about a topic based on Linux.
