Microsoft makes a great operating system for the end user, has anybody ever tried to use gentoo? It was horribly confusing for me, never mind a user that just got a computer. If *nix ever wants a hold in the OS Wars, they will have to make it more user friendly. Right now the only reason why I have a Knoppix Live CD next to me, is so I can become more knowledgable about *nix systems because they are used in nearly all major servers. Right now, the only thing Linux has over Windows is it's one hell of a server.

Bill Gates is a very good businessman, regardless of all the scandals going around about where he got DOS from. Whether or not his morals are good, is up to debate. "I think there is a world market for maybe five computers." - Thomas Watson, founder of IBM. Now there's a desktop in almost every household in America, thanks to Bill Gates.
