"...Linux, MS-DOS, and Windows 2000 (also known as the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly)."
It may not be PC in such circles to say such things but Windows 2000 is an excellent operating system. Sure MS may be bas***ds, they may be anti-competitive practices and their licencing may suck but the simple fact is that Windows OS's are popular, highly competent and improve with every release! Sure I accept that MS practices may have improved their standing in the OS stakes but that doesn't (cannot) take away the fact that it is MS & Windows that made home computing so popular with ordinary people! I appreciate it was probably posted in humour but this kind of statement just irritates those of us who try to keep an open mind about such things and drives potential Linux users away :-) James C.
