Teambldr,
I can truly see what your saying. But the problem is that most folks don't have as much skill as you do. Take my ISP for example. He's learned that running a machine as ROOT was stupidity to looking them down so hard they squeaked.
If you take this another step you'd have all kinds of folks that get nailed by viruses as soon as they've reinstalled their system without virus protection. Just 2 days ago, I was a friend's used car dealer shop. He's got this nifty car auction PC with 98 installed. His office staff girl went to check the mail and boom, right before my eyes klez sent the box to a black screen with a "_" waiting (this was after I had tried installing a virus protection program. Too late. ... the Auction system staff just had finished re-installing the system that morning.
And the final step. All the home users who can't really protect their own system out of plain lack of experience. M$ is number so they've got all the newbie types too.
So, even trying to give M$ a fair shake. They've still got themselves in virus heaven. I wonder what will happen though.
.Net ... hehe ... is gonna depend on how much M$ wants to charge for it. Last I heard quite a few companies were complaining.
Hexley, the un-official mascot now reigns as the largest single distributor of *nix. And, Hexley is having a big problem playing ball over Office. So, imagine open office, star office teamed up with Hexley what will .NET have?
XBOX ... the undercover, pull the wool over your eyes sneak attack. A while back I said the same thing, and I'm still sticking to my guns. M$ is working to put itself in all of your homes. lololololo ... Body Snatchers SPXP.
openoffice + gimp + sketch ...
