you talk about not wanting to own a renault, that's fair enough, but take the mini for instance, there are not many people still driving the old mini's, but you can't take away the impact they had on the car market and car buyers,it's the same with windows, anything that is invented and released to the public is going to be modified and altered by other people trying to make it better,cheaper,easier to use etc. but no-one has brought out a better easier to use os than windows. and if they have they haven't marketed it properly. everything we use today has been improved upon over the years, televisions were black and white when they first came out and eventually they changed to colour. does that mean that the first black and white televisions were rubbish.? every time something new is released it is a challenge to other developers to improve on it. because no one has produced and marketed a better os than windows, don't blame microsoft. windows is attacked by virus writers because it is the most popular, it is the virus writers at fault not microsoft. when some little toe rag steals my car I'm hardly going to blame ford, because they didn't make it thief proof. it wouldn't matter how secure ford made the car, someone would come up with a way of getting in to it. it's not ford's fault that the world is full of morons.so when you buy a car you take responsibility for it's security, you fit an alarm system, or you fit an immobiliser,or a steering lock.the same goes with a computer, you have to take steps to ensure it's security, because there are morons out there intent on wrecking it for everyone. microsoft released a product that appealed to the public and brought them into the world of computing. and it works. how many security holes are there in linux or any of the other systems, they haven't been tested yet. because the whizz kids aren't interested in them. so don't mind me sticking with windows and bill gates, and i don't give a monkeys how rich he get's, good luck to him. it is morons writing viruses that get microsoft a bad name not microsoft. ( now where's that bottle of cabernet sauvignon i was drinking)
