70% people in the world use Windows operating system. Still when ever people get a chance they will accuse or trash Microsoft. It is Microsoft alone that made Computers a household item. Relatively reasonable pricing of their products allowed millions of people to become the IT dudes that they are proud to be. Hundreds of thousands of people who learned computers with pirated Windows software, foray around to buy Macs or Linux machine when they make a little money out of the knowledge they accrued from learning on Windows. What is the mind set behind this trend? How much you do you appreciate or depreciate Microsoft for what they did or for what they didn’t do?

It's because Microsoft, monopolizes as much as possible. When a competitor comes out, Microsoft buys them out and places that product in a closet. I seen a documentary on this once, I’m sure you can research it on the net. Anyway…after they get rid of programs that are be better than theirs, they give us hardly no choice but to buy their product, which is not that great, crashes and bugs galore. That's my 2 cents.

But isn’t that what business is all about? Anyway I agree with the crashes and bugs. The un even size of the software’s they make is also a problem Sometime back I read a company made an OS that can be copied on to a floppy.
