Your original mail said "And what do you define as Non-Linux and why can't Non-free softwares be discussed." The implication that other are working out is that you meant that we discuss non-linux/non-free software dedicatedly. Nobody here has any problem with relevant comparison with behaviors in other OSes. In other words, it is probably ok to ask questions like "this NIC is working flawlessly in windows, how do I make it work on Linux". But it is not proper to ask questions like "I cant boot in Windows. Can someone help me?". It is even ok to questions like "how do I get emacs on Windows to save my custom preferences."
