X vs Y. Why?

Posted 01-15-2006 at 06:02 PM by XavierP

Contrary to what appears to be popular belief, Linux users do not, by default, hate Microsoft or Windows. Some of us still make our living from picking up after them.

The number of "Windows vs Linux" threads seems to be increasing, why? Why why why? Seriously guys, if you feel the need to ask why one is better than the other you really haven't spent enough time with either.

Opening Paragraph

Posted 12-24-2005 at 12:00 PM by XavierP

Ingredients:
1 blog
1 blogger
Mixed users
Mix of things that need to be said

Stir well and leave to percolate.


What's this all about then eh? Well, since I already have a blog and since everyone else will be blogging about their Linux experiences, I felt that I needed to do something a little bit different.

This will be full of stuff that annoys me. No personal attacks, though, it will be about trends rather than...
