"The problem is, people can't do without computers. Is Microsoft to the left of Apple?"

Actually, Apple leans to the left. But there is an alternative as in post #2, Linux. No one controls Linux and anyone can start up a distribution. There once was a Christian version of Red Hat, if I remember right.

I use Ubuntu Linux. I paid them nothing, it's free. And it works. If the Ubuntu people came out with a pro-left statement, all Christians would have to do is fork Ubuntu.

However, most people don't have the computer smarts to use a free system like Linux, so I'll stick with everyone else and use MS Windows.

The fringe element is getting nuttier every day. I hope they enjoy living like the Amish.

Too limited a selection of applications with Linux compared to MS Windows. And not enough support for device drivers.

Other then that, its a great OS, better in many ways.
