I love Microsoft, because their Critical Security Patches generate an almost six-figure income for me!
Fun aside, I have been working with computers since the early 80s and I like it all! Where would we be without Microsoft -or- Apple? Competition generates innovation.
And, yes, Linux and Open Source is overrated. Most Open Source projects are crippled with horrible bugs anyway - I prefer to buy my software, so I can yell at least at a poor customer service rep and don't have to feel guilty to curse at a poor programmer who has dedicated so much spare time to generate shitty code.
As with Linux: No, I haven't found any Cubase clone or even Photoshop clone (although gimp is good, but not THAT good) for Linux - as long as I don't have that, I am not interested and consider it a server OS or for the interested to get a better look under the hood of an OS.
