Cry me a river. Bias is one thing that has gone in M$'s favor for years now. You can't tell me that companies like Dell and Gateway are not bias toward Micro$oft. I guess bias is okay as long as it is in your favor. And innovation? Whatever. Everything I have read lately about what the next windows will have on it I look at it and say... I've been using that option for years. Apparently, the next windows will have multiple desktops (NO WAY!) and a few other things that Linux ALREADY has. Innovation? More like catching up. "Windows is a 32-bit shell for a 16-bit extension to an 8-bit operating system designed for a 4-bit microprocessor by a 2-bit company that can't stand one bit of competition."
