By the time Longhorn comes out I'm sure everyone will be sick of the subject "windows vs linux." Will longhorn finally destroy that pesky linux and mark another decade of Microsoft's monopoly, or will the underdog come out with a stunning upset and send a multi billion dollar company to it's grave?

Well, I don't long for the upcoming Longhorn or any Microsoft OS, I am quite happy with Linux/BSD. I recently built a cheap box (1.6 Duron, 256 ddr, 60gb, 32mb ati), and do not plan to upgrade for at least half a decade (barring hardware failure). This system is way more than enough to satisfy my computing needs (development, "light" games, surfing and etc). A system with 3 ghz or more is probably an overkill for me.
