Choice when it comes to operating systems is a new innovation ...
A few short years ago there wasn't a whole lot of choice, but now there is and there are people and businesses out there choosing not to use Windows on the desktop. And with Linux that choice is becoming easier to make. Sure its not hurting Microsoft at all, thats way they flew their top people to Munich, to wish the Germans the best with their Linux desktops. In fact, lately they've been doing a lot of traveling for that purpose. Makes the heart feel warm and fuzzy just to think about it. But of course companies like Red Hat will never survive, nobody wants their junk right? Especialy not on the desktop! Thats where Windows belongs!

But hey, I don't make my living off of writing software, so what do I know?
