Windows 7 has been out and about for little over a week now, and as it turns out, Microsoft's new baby is doing relatively well. That is, according to the figures by NetApplications: Windows 7 already reached the 3% mark this weekend, and is already closing in on the 4% mark.

truth hurts, especially when you pull their head out of the sand
Well, I wouldn't have said anything, since there are a lot of people who have trouble with their Linux installs, but when some people's first reactions are "hey, zealots will smack you" then I have to respond.
Yet, all I have to say, installing and configuring Linux on some hardware is still not on the average users' level even these days, not even with Ubuntu. But that doesn't mean that one user's struggles can provide a general opinion about Linux [installing or otherwise].
And no, I'm not going to smack anyone. If I can't drive, I won't, but others still try and hit some walls, which is not my problem, yet driving won't be any harder or easier.

Besides, when for every successful open source developer like Linus you have a hundred thousand college and high school virgins still having life paid for by mommy and daddy so they can worship at the Church of Stallman...
Is that like when for every Anders Hejlsberg you have hundred thousands of code monkeys hammering out substandard closed source code so that they can make a quick buck?

Fully expected - truth hurts, especially when you pull their head out of the sand, smack the silly rose colored glasses off their face with a wet trout, giving them a harsh dose of reality.
