"I do not consider Windows ready for the desktop. I found it difficult to use, buggy and lacking in security. I also found technical support lacking. While Windows captured a significant portion of the desktop market, the product is clearly not a good fit for consumers who do not understand the risks associated with logging on to the Internet. The costs of providing aftermarket products can run higher than the price paid for the hardware."

Altough the article looks like it is meant to bash windows all over, I could write a couple more like it. I switched to linux when I got some similiar expirence with win95 back then ... and am still on linux, because every time I need to use windows, it convinces me in about 10 minutes that it's mostly useless still, 10 years later. Not to mention it's very unfriendly for a power user and almost impossible to configure in a way I need and want. Oh well, that's what alternatives are for. I pitty all those folks that knows just windows and nothing else.
