"If this doesnt wake up the world and make them all switch to Linux I dont know what will."

Um, perhaps the availabiltity of applications?

My sides, my sides, etc.

PS: don't jive me with any of that "Star Office" crap either, sonny.

So tell me why MS didn't inform it's customers to turn this 'feature' off 5 weeks ago, when they found out about it?

Why did they continue to sell this to millions?

I suggest you do some more reading on the subject before you give out your MS brainwashed opinions. The world would be just fine without MS. Have you never heard of Novell. They have an entire suite of apps that can get you by without the use of MS products when combined with Linux for the client end.

Major corporations are starting to switch away from MS because of licensing costs and because MS has not delivered on their promise for better OSs and Applications.

Don't get me wrong I use MS products on a daily basis and for the most part I have no problem with them at all but the world can live without them.
