Yeah, I know that there are those that don’t get it. I just hate Microsoft’s business model and dislike their bloatware. Linux desktop software does what I want it to do, it runs fast, and it’s compatible. Plus I get to tinker a bit...

It’s great that you are able to do that, But what percentage of the population wants to do that? 0.002%??

Whereas Microsoft could be installed on 100% of all the computers.

Keep in mind I am not talking about quality I’m only talking about quantity. Bill Gates is a billionaire whereas Linux is still trying to get Greater than a small percentage of all computers.

Does granny want to Fiddle with the latest distro? Or see pictures of the grandkids in email?

That’s another thing you linux geeks lack...The ability to understand the above point.

In addition you are willing to have arguments about it, while I don’t give a sh*t if you want to use Linux.
