as an add on to your message I aggree with you in that reguard to. also people have said enough is enough. Currently its called lets crack the software.<grin> Seriously though josh I don't think there are enough of us to actually make a difference. I aggree with every point you just put up so do others. there are opensource things all the time but cash needs to be earned and all that. and there are disadvantages to totally free things to since it always ends up in more cash. yes we would do if we did not have viruses in general. And mostly the security software has to guard against the dumb consumer like most non computer savi are. I do admit though that people can be to restrictive sometimes. and some prices can be a bit successive. Hmm would be good if everything came accessible out the box wouldn't it. as I said before there is not enough of us to actually push the bounderies. As I said, you can get stuff alegally so psudo free for you. However to actually get this done ie have it actually legal and all that we would need everyone like half the world or something to shift over to a particular thing and force the big corps to change. Its not happened yet, it may do at some stage soon but not yet. And ofcause there are businesses that mostly get this stuff right now, the average jo was probably an afterthought to. Sad isn't it?

You know after a fresh install of >windows xp things load lots faster? then put your antivirus and antispyware and securitty software on there and things run half or less than half as fast because everything's being scanned. But if you remove the security software you risk a total breakdown. When will the consumers learn macs and Linux are better? I'm not talking about whether one chooses the command line or the gui that's notthe issue. The issue is the OS viruses and security.
