it would

market power, their massive library of compatible software, and their
vendor-lock tricks.

that's a cute set of excuses you have there. keep working on it and you can
probably find a way to blame global warming, the ozone layer and sunspot
activity on the unorganized mess called desktop linux.


´When chairman Mao was asked what he thought of the French Revolution,

Take the long view.

Microsoft *wiil* die. No company, no technology stays dominant forever.

big deal. one day the earth, the sun and the universe will also die. but
neither the sun nor microsoft is going anywhere in the immediate future.


If you're old enough, remember Ma Bell? If you read history, it's full
of once dominant compaies and technologies that have fallen. Hell, just
look at GM. Once a titan of industrial production, now a pathetc shell.

was this supposed to prove something? so gm basically failed and so did a
bunch of other companies. is this somehow proof that microsoft is also going
to fail in the foreseeable future. since gm failed let's extrapolate this
and declare that redhat, ibm and google are also destined to fail.

Too bad for you that your entire post is bull****, ill informed
opinions, MS FUD and LIES.


too bad for you that real world consumers have rejected your little
geek toy and continues to reject it no matter how much you cry and whine.





Another lie. Oh well, try to have a good day anyway.

Oh the irony!

Ubuntu has been free for years yet hasn't taken over lead on the desktop.
The above statement is FACT you IDIOT.

You just wish that people would embrace Ubuntu but they don't. Ubuntu
doesn't run the popular software programs out there. People also don't
want to learn cryptic commands to get that ****ty Ubuntu to do anything.
