Hmmm I meant why use Win* in first place.

Cos Win* rules the desktop, as of now, due to its ease of use. (Pl. no stories of virus etc. Cos a good and free AV, FW and spyware-checker and NON MS Browser are enough to keep your system lean and mean.) And anyway OS itself is a worthless piece of code. It's only the addon s/ws that are imp.

You can search and read about the "disruptive
technologies" and how, though a superior
technology/business practice exists, this new
disruptive technology creates a standard, easily
displacing the better one. Linux disrupted Unix in
server market. Dont even consider MS which was still a
baby when Linux started getting traction on server
side.

Just out of curiosity, may I know which s/w or os you
used while replying to this mail? I am currently using
FF 0.9.3 + Win2K Pro SP4.


Umm from past 2-3 years Linux, Linux, Linux, Solaris, Linux, Linux, Solaris and mozilla, firefox recently. Well my reason to show doors to windows is like this. Consider MS as a builder and Windows as house. Will you agree to buy a house from a builder which just has glossy paint, no security (doors/windows, you need to ask some other builder to fill them up), weak foundation, and one which keeps falling now and then? Me? NOPE NEVER!
