Why are we so masochistic to support Microsoft systems? Maybe it's because as long as MS is around, there will be an inordinate number of jobs in supporting it, and it's good money. Microsoft means job security.

Good rhetorical point. It is financially a boone for support people; but, it soaks the daylights out of the companies using it and tends to limit options due to the climbing cost of support overall. Linux has it's limits; but, they are quickly disappearing. MS needs to shape up or it'll find itself in the same position they put everyone else in - the jobless lines.
