After the Paris Hilton video prrediction...I'm beginning to wonder if that Bush bet was a good idea.

I'm with Banz on this one - open source rules. We are slowly converting all our systems over, starting with the kids systems 'cause they are the least critical. Microsquish did it to themselves with the outrageous sticker prices ($1200 for OS on all our systems) and the buggy, insecure POS system that they put out. It's like trench warfare every day with XP keeping the crap off my system because of their inability to produce a decent, secure product.
Open Office, Mozilla - thumbs up. Some time in the very near future, Microsquish products will be burned in our backyard while we dance around the flames (naked after the kids go to bed =P) and they will never darken my days again!
I also read that their newest OS is going to take years to put out because they have to work from the ground up due to all the security problems - think they said 2008 before they would have a replacement for XP. Linux will have bled many windows users away by then, yippee!
