It's a pity this article is so hopelessly outdated as to be laughed out of any serious discussion. If you're going to try to convince someone that Unix is better than NT, fine. But if you're going to try and compete with WinXP, you'd be better off finding an article written with that in mind.
Yes it is out of date. However, in it is a link to a very nice page that is not. Check out http://www.linux-tutorial.info/Linux-NT_Debate/ by Jim Mohr. His article is fairly long, but then the topic is not short. :-) And don't let the title fool you, he does discuss XP. I emailed him sometime back with a few pointers to add to his article, and we had a very nice conversation about the topic. You definitely need to check it out. Note, the article is not perfect, it's showing its age in a few places, but Jim does keep adding to it, or at least the "last updated" value keeps changing. :-) HTH, Kevin
