Well, it was as much a commentary on this seasonal thread as it is on the
OS that I choose to run on my computers.
My important machines run Linux, i.e. my webserver and firewall. I
couldn't trust Windows to run anything without my constant supervision,
and those are two functions that I do not want to have to constantly
supervise.
Windows is like the retarded child of the OS family.
