Sorry, I did not mean to be "the usual windows basher".
I am a Linux sysadmin, and to tell you the truth, I don't like windows very much. Anyway, I think Windows has its place, that is on desktop computers. (I mean windows XP, since Vista sucks royally. In my opinion, of course). I also think that it's quite stupid (imho) to use Windows in ATM machines or in some other embedded or higly specialized devices that had a perfeclty working software before someone decied that they could look better with colour displays and animations and so on. I also don't like the idea to have my in-car computer (hopefully not the engine control system) crash every now and then thus forcing me to stop and restart the car to clear the error.
