Even the payware OS makers admit that it supports more hardware, at least over the past several years. Even the some of the more sluggardly hardware vendors are coming around. <http://www.magicjack.com/5/faq/> was one you were concerned about, no? > It is not nearly as intuitive as Windows I find Gnome approximately as counterintuitive as Windows®, but Windows® is much *less* intuitive than KDE or Xfce. Luckily, people using a free OS have many more choices when it comes to the interface, so they can find one that they work best with. > and is a very far cry from a replacement platform for it... People who are interested should give it a try. Some will stick with a payware OS, and some will switch to a free one. And some people will get so upset about the whole idea of a free system that they'll use the freeware newsgroup to advocate against trying one; ironic, isn't it? > especially when so few people use it. Gazillions of payware OS users can't be wrong about it being the best system for them, can they? I mean, didn't IE's 95+% market share prove it was the best browser on the market for years? (I was using a free browser, and I recall a lot of a.c.f-ers doing the same, but those are exactly the kind of fringe freaks whose choices don't matter, right?) I find Windows® users unhappy about a lot of things with it, but inertia and other factors keep them from really giving something else a try. There are good, free alternatives to check out if anyone's so inclined. I'm much happier using the system that I now have than I ever was when using Windows®. |
