"The Open Source community's answer is to ignore Microsoft's incredible technological lead - because it is proprietary and not a standard - and instead focusses on their own cool thing and self-gratifying cool features, because they think they can do better (which is where the ignorance combined with ego comes in)."

I don't think, Aesiamun, that exaggerating is necessary.
In fact better is very hard to define, for IT, it's some combinaison of price/performance/feature/ease of use.
Microsoft, as other company of yesterday and tomorrow, may be very good in some departement. But i repeat myself, for 0$, Linux is very well suited for simple usage, and time to time, less simple.
