I just updated it a few days ago.

I'll remove it ASAP.

I'm sorry about that. It's supposed to be a persuasive counterpart to the rant-filled site that got me here in the first place.

The alternatives list was just copied from MicrosoftSucks.org, I put a disclaimer (Please choose this at your own risk) on the page.

I've been improving it since, because it received a lot of criticism. We all learn more from mistakes, no?

Refalm:
Well, the alternatives has some stuff that I left out in the alternatives list on this website, like Visual Studio (you forgot Eclipse btw, which many developers think is the best).

I'm trying to figure out a way to really create a big alternatives page, where people can see how using Linux or Mac OS X and their programs improve whatever they do with their computers.

Aloone_Jonez:
I think there are too many alternatives listed.

For example, there are only a few alternatives to Windows and only a couple serious free alternatives to MS Office: ReactoOS and ABIWord are not real alternatives to MS.

Refalm:
That's why I have used stars to indicate which ones are serious alternatives.

I just updated my alternatives section yesterday. It now has a better warning, a table of contents (separate page only) and links to alternatives.

I also updated my Why Microsoft Sucks section.

So far, so good, but I'm really lonely.
