Thanks for posting this. I will never ever buy another Windows product after Vista and I am looking for something different. Vista really was the nail in the Microsoft office. I consider Microsoft a a bad virus at this point always snooping and “updating” (they mean disabling) your computer. I would like to hear more opinions. Bookmark!

Just be careful of these options. Most are not yet ready for prime-time. But they are fun to look at.

I'm actually excited about #6--Kolibiri

I understand your dislike of MS but suggest you have a friend show you Windows 7. I was ready to go the Linux route after Vista, then got a free upgrade to Windows 7 on my new Dell laptop. It’s slick, fast and has yet to crash (3 months on).

If you really, really like the Microsoft Windows interface, then take a look at ReactOS.

Back away from the Macintosh.

Microsoft Windows 7 will destroy all OS’s!
