Absolutely, I wasn't trying to imply that Linux was the poorer choice 
for *everyone*, I just feel much more comfortable and productive under 
Windows myself (and so does my wife).  Just like some people feel more 
productive and comfortable under OSX.  Different OS's for different 
people.  The thing I tend to take issue with is when people get dogmatic 
or evangelistic about their OS and feel that their OS is the *only* 
choice for *all* people.

Hmm, I dont' think I'd be making too controversial a claim if I stated 
that Windows has improved somewhat since the Win9X days. =;->
