Why Microsoft will always be king

That's why Linux is better. It's not owned by a business. There is no "ruthlessness" involved. It's there for the people, by the people.

The Linux kernel isn't owned by a business, but Linux distros are. Do you think for one minute that RedHat Software, Mandrake Software, Lindows, etc. wouldn't be ruthless if they had a chance to be ruthless?
Face it man, businesses want money and they need money to stay alive.

Distros are made up of the same free software that the kernel is. I have used RedHat for quite some time now, but honestly I could give a rats ass less if they go out of business tomorrow. I switch to Debian and keep on trucking (Debian is not owned by a business). I have no problem with people making a business "around" Linux which is what most of the distro vendors have done. But they do not own Linux.

Hibeeboy, my girlfriend is adopted and she prefers to use linux, for your information. Also, just to clarify as i wasn't sure from your response, i was not agreeing with avid, i was, in fact, calling him a moron.

The flippant adoption remark was not intended to offend, it was my attempt at non PC humour. I mean, if the guys brother can't manage to attach/download something off the internet after being shown numerous times, are they really related ? Well, in Alabama you can be related.. --- never mind, it backfired the last time
I took the liberty of assuming you were not calling me a moron.
