All I can say is microsoft is not going to suddenly become crap at what it does simply because that victim of computer nerd irrationale Bill Gates no longer decides whether they have pink or white toilet paper in the restrooms. Microsoft are not just flukes kids. I predict windows 2000 will be a perfect os for 95% of people. Not saying that the majority are valuable and overwhelming stats should be lent credence or any such thing as outrageous. Just that MS won't suddenly implode without Bill.

Well the support for non windows is growing.
Linux is getting a lot stronger and Be is going to be free when v5 is released.
