When it comes to Microsoft (Microsucks to you), I’m not a “supporter”. I’m just practical with my opinions.

I use what works best in any particular sector of technology. Microsoft is the best at what they do with Windows, no matter what version or latest iteration. OSX is good, but only for limited usage, iow, for Apple ‘PCs’. Linux is forever trying to keep up with Windows, and even trying to copy what Windows does. It’s kinda miraculous that any one piece of software can work with thousands of different configurations that can be found in the PC sector; Apple doesn’t do that.

When it comes to the many other things that MS is involved in, they are not as good in all of them, but, for the majority of them, they are much better than what Apple or Google produce; for example: any office application, online or offline. Android and iOS users keep hoping that MS will develop their applications to also work with Android and/or iOS. That’s a mark of perceived and real superiority.

Apple already has done it.

I know some Linux users that think their product is superior to Microsoft. I don’t use Linux. So I can’t confirm or deny it.
