  I just came across this video. There are some situations where I have to use windows. That said this could
be a great equalizer.

I have some old laptops still running Win95 and winxp, but no plans to ever use anything else from MicroS#aft.
-
RANT, skip at will.
I yap a lot against MicroS#aft as it is terrible in all possible ways, especially plugging stuff from Linux in Windoze and never ever admitting it, to secretly paying Linux projects, to never ever fixing memory issues inherited from WinNT and Win2K, to paying huge amounts of money to lie to people about Win costing less than Linux (yes, they did, a lot back in 2000's when Linux desktop started gaining traction), to paying Nowell for using Linux code in Win (Nowell had bough Suse Linux and both did this to cover their a$$ legally after SCO lost to IBM), etc etc etc .... i can go on for days.
But, win 3.1 was pretty usable and there was nothing "better" back then, Win95 was OK as much as it could be, so back then i liked and used them, OS2 failed miserably although it was much better, BSD and SlackWare and the likes were hard to install and make work, etc etc etc.... i can go on ... never mind.
The thing is, i hate MicroS#aft for not using that money to fix things, i hate VolksWagen for paying engineers to lie instead of to fix things, etc etc etc .... i could .. AHHH SHUT UP!!!
In short, humans are faked up! :)

  I can fully appreciate the sentiment tommylight. I unfortunately still have to use windows in some capacity due to
work. Otherwise I would be running all Linux stuff. That said it is nice to have the ability to tell Micro$hit
" No you can't "
