Device drivers on Linux are written in C?
Device drivers on Windows are written in C++ and make use of COM. Which
one is more technologically advanced?

OK, I'll tell Microsoft, Loki, Creative, ESS, Crystal, ADI, Voyetra et al

It's been wheezing a slow death for years if even by virtue that it
can't even be given away.
Linux is/has and will continue to be ignored by the desktop user
because it is an inferior system for that purpose. Choice has nothing
to do with it because the choices that are offered are all inferior to
the Windows counterparts.
Linux left the dock in a leaky boat without any clue as to navigation
and what the purpose of the mission is/was and the end result is a
mish-mash of confusion and half done applications.
The consumers have spoken by virtue of the dead silence in adopting
Linux as some type of a desktop alternative to Windows. It just isn't
happening and if Linux can't capitalize on all of this MS 8.net and
spyware registration crap, it will stay as a virtual unknown on the
desktop which is where it is now.

And once again, who cares? What is it to you or any of us? Linux
was just fine before it was noticed by money chewing corporate
types (like yourself) and will be just fine after.
We didnt make it for *you*.

Huh?
I've noticed the bitter boys tend to be homophobic. My guess is that it is
because they see gay men getting a lot of something they are not...sex.

Actually, in the majority of cases, poeple just don't know there's anything
else out there. Most newbies would be better served by getting a Mac.

I can do most of the same things on windows.. not all of them, and it's
definately no where near as reliable.
The programming packages on windows are bloated pieces of crap from what I've
seen.. and they cost a ton. All the programming I need to do is simple, and
the programs needed to accomplish it are there when you install.

Don't know for sure.. especially since I don't know the conversion rate right
now. You can look on store.sun.com for prices though. I doubt the monitor is
included.

Our environment is pretty ugly too, but when it's planned properly ahead of
time and implemented properly, it makes a huge difference.
