Windows Vista Beta 1 is already superior to Linux. 4359

You and every other M$ product user on the planet had better pray that Linux and OSS don't go anywhere.

Without Linux and OSS, M$ would have no incentive to improve on the quality of their products, they would just keep spewing out the same garbage wrapped in a new container and charge some ridiculous price for it.

Think on it, you don't improve by being the best, but by trying to be the best. Linux makes Windows better. Instead of wanting to see Linux go away, you should hope that it keeps on doing what it's doing by keeping your platform vendor on their toes.

Maybe even one day, M$ products will be as good as Linux. I seriously doubt it, but it's always something you wintards can hope for. For the Linux users part, I hope M$ always keeps making Windows so there will always be a model of how *not* to do something right.
