I'm a Linux user - have been one for years.
With every release of Windows I see, users learn to live with yet more of what they don't want.
I read a lot about Windows but I won't go near it. The farther that OS goes down the crapper, the happier I am for have taken the time to learn how a computer should really work.
I will say thanks to all of the Microsoft fans that entertain me constantly tho.
