Actually, I don't think XP or Win2k sucked at all, and Win2k3 is a very stable, fast OS.

"Microsoft could decide to suck less, but that would make the situation suck more in the long run, because Microsoft probably won't ever release a platform that doesn't suck. If they did, it would probably blow."

WTF does that mean, basically, you seem to be saying whatever MS does, even if they manage to suck less, it would still be a bad situation. Perhaps there is no pleasing you. If MS released an OS that didn't suck, it would blow? are you 13? Come on, be reasonable.

There is lots of things to not like about MS and Windows, just like there is lots of things to dislike about Linux. All OSs suck, they all just suck in different ways.
