Why do folks feel compelled to buy this stuff? I am using Win2k Pro and Server and I am just totally satisfied with it. Who cares if M$ supports it. It doesn’t need support as far as I am concerned.
It is the same wit all these vendors. bright lights and bells. I am using IDE’s that I bought in 1999 and developing apps for
XP, Vista etc. No bells and whistles.

I disagree. I worked there 3.5 years and lived in a village in East Java. Wonderful tolerant people was my experience. The thing that struck me most strange were the American flags and pictures of Bush senior painted on trucks AFTER the first gulf war. There was no anti-Americanism at all. Bali is mostly Hindu. Other islands vary in religious majority/tolerance. I walked down the streets of small towns and heard Christian revival music from churches. I am sure there is a very small fanatical care of IslamoFascists there but they are far outnumbered. I had a good friend whose father was an Imam and ran a religious school for boys and girls. I was greeted like President Suharto when I visited.
