Drives me crazy. Rather than talking about how MS got here and how to fix it you get this screeching.

Same reason Linux desktop will never be mainstream unless valve keeps pumping billions into the shit regular the users need and want.

    Yeah thats what I was trying to add with my reply. Ms is only better because its had 1000x the funding. But even with that funding its not 1000x better its only slightly better. This is a perfect time to fund alternatives and take away Microsofts monopoly.
