ihrsetrdr said:Microsoft wins because they took the initiative and turned it all into a big business, and thus enjoys the power that every "big dog" has. If it were not for MS's "big dog" power,Windows(XP) probably wouldn't have any better hardware support than a 'typical' Linux distro. Windows-on-every-desktop has come to pass because of MS's ability to arm-twist the big retail computer manufacturers.
Its the arm-twisting most people seem to be blind for.. I have no problem with MS being a "big dog", they worked hard for it.. but they turned into a "mean dog" lately..
Like I said earlier.. Linux is unable to compete with Windows on equal footing.
