Since you know your head from your butt
tell me HOW relevant is your 'reply' to my OP?

To help your butt think better (apparently your head
stopped doing that since the time you started replying) I
am highlighting my OP:

MS didn't invest much financially and R/D wise on the
client/app products and still has %90+ markup, as PER
THEIR STATEMENTS. This lack of serious work, has lead to
the horrendous viruses and worms that can break out so
rediculously easiy.

Even if 1/2 of the blame goes to the 'educated' CIOs and
the 'professional' staff which have been REPEATEDLY
chosing to go MS no matter what, the unsuspecting home
or non-professional user deserves BETTER.

Although I do NOT disagree that people accept WHATEVER
the media likes to serve them at face value, this is OFF
TOPIC.

-m

PS: The fact that the media can influence so many people
so easiliy is wrong and dangerous. But as you said the
people NEED to be informed and use sound judgement to
keep the useful stuff and discard the BS or intentional
distortions.

As a matter of fact, MS has largely leveraged deception
techniques to stmulate and maintain the DESIRE for its
products.
