I really don't know what's the fuss about. I mean people install
different operating systems to do different things. I've Linux
happily co-existing with my Win95 setup at home and my linux dates
back to Aug 1995 w/o any patches installed so.... 

I mainly use Win95 for hooking up to the Net because it's easy to
setup and because I haven't rtfm the linux man on setting up PPP
tho' I've compiled the options into my kernel. 

I use Unices at work, from SUN->DEC->HP and still find Linux to be
a lot more fun, mainly because I can delve into the kernel code
when I want to. The only reason why I have Linux at home is so I
can do C++ & C programming the Unix way.

So if people wanna use Linux, let them use it. If they wanna use
Win95 let them.. there isn't any good or bad.. of course Mr Gates
is a whole diffrenet story...
