Lack of skilled professionals in Linux, might have caused this. Tell me

People are not crazy, they take in what looks good. Tell me would you go
for a "chakachak" item or for very "dull" one. Compare real life
phenomenons ;)

Because it gets their jobs done.

You are wrong here buddy, just wait and watch ... LINUX RULES ! ... 'beoz
it gives you the freedom and power ... and Indians are habitual to gain
