I agree Linux and Mac have made life tough for Microsoft and Bill Gates, but the comfort level and user friendliness associated with or provided by MS is missing.For example I could easily format my drive in case of Registry issues in MS, and formatting doesn’t take much time these days. For OS 7 and O2 8 all we need is spend some 30 minutes. And all the bugs and issues with use are easy to fix in Windows, and chat assistance (customer service) provided by MS is more or less useful in that way. Where as we cant say the same about the others right?
Not true, the Mac has always been way more user-friendly and comfortable than Windows. I understand that the latest Linux GUI’s are as comfortable and easy to use as Windows.
You act like formatting your hard drive (a catastrophic measure) is some kind of a cool thing to do! I hate formatting my drive. I always lose lots of data, programs, setting and browser add-ons. You have to reinstall all of your programs. It’s like tearing down a town because it’s got some problems.
Microsoft assistance is $39/call. You call that friendly. MS bugs and issues are NOT easy to fix on Windows. OK, I have some file corruption in a program or in the OS (probably in the Registry). You got any brilliant ideas on how I can fix that without System Restore (another catastrophic function)? You don’t have any because all you can do is System Restore.
Furthermore, Microsoft is the most evil corporation in the last 30 years by far. Among the hierarchy of corporate criminals, Microsoft is like the serial killer with the biggest body count. I read up on Microsoft’s evil ways and recalled all the times I had been forced to use their products and it made me so angry that I simply boycotted them as much as I could. Why reward evil? When you stick up for Bill Gates and Microsoft, you are cheering for evil. It’s like being a serial killer groupie.
