Re: Non-fix fix
I use mainly Linux at home because it works so much better than Windows for day-to-day activities. Unfortunately, I do have to use Windows for a few applications. Perhaps those might work under WINE in Linux, but I haven't tried as I prefer to use applications in the environment they were designed for.
The 'Linux is successful only because you don't have to pay to use it.." argument doesn't hold water. My computers came with Windows, so the cost is the same whether I am using Windows or Linux (in my case both since I use dual boot to get into either Linux or Windows).
