Sorry I should not start an arguement on something else. If you disagree, that alright. I am to sad to argue atm.
I'll talk out of my own experiences and I think Windows isn't a bad OS. It's not the best Os out there, but dare and tell me which one is the best(there is no such thing as "best OS")
Everything has it strong and bad parts, even Microsoft.

And about those lawsuits about pre-installed sofware; I choose my own programs I use.
If IE, WMP,etc comes with the system I see it as an extra you can use. But i'm free to download Opera and mediaplayer classic if I want too. It's not that Windows will go <BOOM> when I install Opera.

And about antivirus software; Heck, it's your choice to secure your system. And Microsoft offers a free antivir at their website(I think its free)
If Mac osX was used as much as windows was it will also need antivir 'n stuff(and that will also eat some cpu)

We all don't know what Microkia will give us, so why bash on something that isn't there... Just bash on terrorists instead!

I'm going to watch this from the side, In a nice loungechair
