1. I love Linux. It can do anything a winders box can and way more with half the fuss. It has its quirks. You’re just *used* to dealing with the quirks from winders.

2. The power of Linux is its flexibility. I don’t *have* to have one unified GUI handed down from some snot-nosed jerk in an ivory tower. I get to pick the one I want. Most people want the same burger in every town. Good for them. That’s why they pay big bucks for .5 the OS. Have you ever really used KDE? I can’t imagine anyone saying Vista is better.

3. No way in heck am I drinking *pod* coffee. Pod coffee is crap. Roasted within two weeks at the most and ground for less than 1 minute before the shot is pulled. Pod coffee is a future I want to skip.

Linux isn’t for everybody. That’s the whole freaking point. I love the thing, but it’s not for you. Fine. I think you’re crazy and you probably think I’m crazy. No big deal. It’s just the market.

Now . . . off for locally brewed beer.
