Windows In the increasingly Google-YouTube-Web 2.0 age we inhabit, it's become fashionable to dismiss Windows as a relic. Ask around the office. You'll hear the Gen Xers sneer about how Microsoft's operating system is, well, so yesterday. Even a fair number of IT greybeards are warming to the notion that the times, they are a changing.

In linux you can manage to have most of the things Windows runs, and some others. But then, would you invest on a platform where a lot of people sees paying for software as a bad thing?

Paying for software is not a bad thing. Paying for software that's crap is a bad thing. Being forced to pay for software that's crap is even worse. Being forced to pay for software that's crap to maintain the illegal monopoly of a greedy, deceptive corporation that doesn't deserve its de facto monopoly in the first place is worst of all.
