          I must say, the typefaces on Linux is so much better than that on Windows.

            Holy Hell, you have GOT to be kidding me...

            Linux has just recently got font anti-aliasing, and all they do is blur it and call it "anti-aliasing". Once Linux gets true sub-pixel AA like MacOS X or Windows XP, give me a call.

            Hell, my fonts on any Linux have always been fugly as hell. Windows 95 looked nicer.

                    Different versions of Windows have been received differently.

                    I think of Windows kind of like local govt - it's overpriced and corrupt but it does a lot of work that nobody else will do.

                    Even the most ardent Apple nut has to admit that later versions of Windows are an improvement over earlier versions.

                    I think the real flaw with Windows is that MS insist you keep paying for it, and if things go wrong we'll end up paying every time a PC gets turned on.
