Hi Rolf Tollerud,

You commented,
" Windows is the most spread software on the planet ".

That's an amazing thought.

I attribute that to how well it virtualizes devices.

  Can you name any other software 
  that does a better job of that ?

  Apple won't do it,
  Because they want to lock you in to buying 
  their five thousand dollar systems.

  Linux won't do it,
  Because  Joe Loser, programming yet another Linux distro,
  doesn't own a device like yours.
