Do we really need to switch to linux?
And as once said by a virus writer (in blaster to be exact):
"billy gates why do you make this possible? Stop making money and fix your software!!"

Here's a better question: why work harder when people will happily hand over their money either way?

i would read recent articles on the progess of Windows Vista. Microsoft invited people to test their new OS. Looks like are making sure their OS has less bugs than normal. You can try out Vista as well. Beta 2 is available now.
Anyways, why would hackers bother to after a small percentage of the OS population such as BSD, MAC, and Linux? Hackers didn't bother to go after the Mac, until Apple taunted them.

dear member,
the irony is that Bill Gates owns a good portion of Apple AND Linux.

hes using billions of dollars in R&D. He is trying to make better software.. just not working quite well.. the kernel that windows was built on has to many flaws.. they are trying to rebuild the kernel to make it harder to crack in vista. but its still windows inside. its gunna be cracked. i think =D
