infidel thoughts! (Score 1)

now come on. trying to run a box which can run both unix and windows programs may seem some utopian idea but in the end windows will scream like a baby for "patent violations bla bla bla". Because they DON'T want to lose their well paying mass which is induced into total hypnosis by giving more eyecandy than usability. Linux is, on the other hand and I am sure it was said xth time in slashdot, full edge: fast, sleek, and you have a right to learn, choose, apply and teach. In windows based communities all of them requires some kinda transfer of financial ownership: "You wanta learn how to install x, riiight you havta pay x$ for that" "oh you want to use x, and throw y?, riiight then you havta buy its licence... wallets ple-ease" "Oh you want to use x technology here, oh boy then, it is a server tech now please, choose your user limit 5?,50?,5000? because each of the licences' pricetag is different." "Now you want to teach,huh? Take those tests, which are 100$ each, and if you pass you are an official trainer... " "You want to get tech support... ooh cool now please fax your bill to here" "But I have the serial it's right here written on the box?" "No you gotta pay something to get support,kid" (Actual experience) In three words... go to hell.
