Hmm, it's funny to you guys because deep down you (Score 1)

know it's true. People who want to get things done, and people who have to support the average user know the beauty of Microsoft's products. Don't get me wrong, I love Linux, but I would never in a million years consider trying to migrate all of my own data, nevermind my users' data to Linux. I'd rather suffer the wrath of millions of /. readers than subject myself to that kind of punishment. If any of you have gone through just helping a non-technical person upgrade from one version of Windows to another, you should understand what I mean. BUT, I'll probably get flamed for not conforming to the twenty-something computer science programmer elitist way of thinking. It's too bad you guys can't think for yourselves, and use common sense. Linux is just plain not read for the average user's desktop. And no, it's not a *good thing* because it allows you to feel superior for being able to use it. It's a *bad thing* because the average person doesn't give a crap about Linux, except for the overvalued IPO's. Sorry about the ranting, but sometimes you people make me sick.
