I am Ted Edward Ferreras. I will be writing a news feature regarding the upcoming release of Microsoft Windows Vista and for that matter, I would like to ask for your opinion regarding the questions written below, just so my article will become more accurate. I hope you can spare some time in answering them. (Kahit po tig-2 sentences lang.) Thank you po and God bless.
1. Microsoft Windows and Linux are two major competing computer operating systems, what makes the former better than the latter, vice versa?

2. Microsoft will be launching Windows Vista, their latest version of the Windows operating system in five years. How will it impact the current trend in computer operating systems?
IMO, nothing, same thing with the xp release, ho hum, but one thing for sure will happen, the pirates will have a field day :D
3. Can Linux conquer the computer operating system industry? What makes it any different from Windows?
IMO it has already conquered the computing industry by getting MS attention.
4. Which operating system is most fit/advisable for computer users in the Philippines?
depends on who will use it, for school use it is advisable, it is also suited for government use where money that will be saved from having to buy expensive proprietary OS will instead go to more vital projects e.g., to uplift the lives of our less fortunate countrymen.
