I used PowerToys (and KernelToys) for Windows 95 back when I was running it; now I have Windows 2000. I don't expect to upgrade to XP in the indefinite future, but it's nice to know that PowerToys returned. (If there's a Windows 2000 version of it, I haven't seen it, although it looks like 2000 has some of those features out of the box and Object Desktop stuffs in some of the rest.)
And, yes, I've noticed Linux people tend to be the most frenetic about disliking Microsoft. At least here. The most virulent anti-Microsoft person I know is a local Macintosh fanatic. I like the Mac in a lot of ways--one of the things I liked about BeOS is that it had a lot of the niceties of the Mac UI, a few extras, and added Unix features to that--but the platform's biggest liabilities sometimes seem to be its evangelists. I'd like to like OS X for the same reason I like BeOS, but as of right now I don't believe my iBook could run OS X respectably.
