I can't say I'm entirely surprised. As more people become computer-literate, they begin to recognize that there are better OSs and programs than those done by Microsoft. I use them only out of convenience, since I truly don't understand computers well.

Why isn’t that ever an issue of politics? Because you don’t live in a democracy. You live in a plutocracy. Money rules.

MS is most certainly convenient. Compliance with a bully always is.

Well something has to fill the gap. We might have a problem with media companies when MS goes down. DRM is permeating everything. Even Transmeta chips are planning DRM . The ironic thing is Linus Torvalds works for them .
