Hundreds of debates, countless flames, innumerable passionate supporters, no limits, no ending lines, no result. The conflicts keep on going and going and going. It doesn't matter if it's Cisco's IOS, Microsoft's Windows, Suse's Linux or FreeBSD. People struggle to prove their
platform's superiority ignoring that an Operating System is just a tool focusing on specific needs.

Please clean the MSisms out before putting something up. I'd say you pretty much already made an argument with that, the reason why ppl (like me) hate MS so much is because puttting out a good product is secondary to doing everything they can to make sure they're the ONLY player (please reference US court decisions and US Supreme Court upholding the findings).
OS's prove themselves inferior when they feel they can't survive unless they specifically do things to break compatability with everyone else.
No, we all just can't all get along when there are players out there waiting to cut anyone's throat they can get even remotely close to.
Thanks, Rodney....
