OK with my pedantic hat on, so lets say MS produced W7 Uber Ultimate
with every MS app/service for 70 squillion quid would that be
acceptable? Would lusers stop saying "Ah but I get everything with
Linux" would they start saying "That's not fair, they shouldn't be
allowed to do that" ;-)
I'm just interested TBH I already know the answer.
P.S.
Don't fall into the dead end argument of thinking I'm an MS fanboy a
fairer description would be a non MS hater, I've striven for the last 8
odd years to promote Linux on its own merits and you'll rarely see me
make any comparisons about MS other than to stop lusers spreading MS fud
which IMV is pointless and counter productive.
