It's not about the treasures, it's about the proprietary nuclear waste. And it's not a master race mentality, it's an evolutionary mentality.

There are some fantastic navigation softwares available on WinCE and everything that I have used on the tablet has been 2nd rate or at least the experience has been.
Navigate me to what? WinCE has no where to go, handheld GNU/Linux hasn't even hit its stride yet. But I do like watching Microsoft not giving up the ship, but the ship is sinking none the less.

Not to mention the library of thousands of programs already made for WinCE that don't exist on the Maemo platform.
A tidal wave is coming, you better get off that WinCE island and head for the Linux mainland.

I have liked my experience with Linux
We agree on something.

but why do so many people actually close their mind smaller than Microsoft just to defend Linux?
Not possible.

Truly, if you can embrace something from all OS's you will be better off for it.
Are you saying I need more than one operating system? This is where Microsoft and I might disagree with you.

edit: Reading this the next day, this was suppose to come across in a positive way but instead is kind of a-hole like. Just think happy thoughts when reading it and it should read just right.
