Default OT and Tech question-Going over to the Darkside

Couldn't agree more.
I'm a software developer/designer, so my criteria might be somewhat
different. But I doubt it. Windows is enormously annoying. Network
and
device timeouts and time-slicing don't even work (try to do something
else while your scanner gets going, for instance).

I like linux for a development platform; Mac for office and surfing
around.
Winblows is so bad it's hard to figure out how it ever succeeded.
Ah, oh. I forgot. It's the magic of the marketplace. :-)
