Editorial 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.

Maybe we use the software from the monopolist because it does what we want, it works, and there is nothing available that's easier to use. As for being too stupid to learn other options, now you're being obnoxious. Why do the other optioons require learning? Why can't they be as easy to use?
Damm it, I would like to convert to another operating system but but the lack of software, and the problems of software installation keep driving me back to Windows. Even worse, boors like you keep me defending it.
