No, we're pointing out that letting the fox into the henhouse is generally not
a good idea. Yes, it is important to suggest alternatives, and that is where I
hoped this thread would go, so that I could learn about what those alternatives
are. Instead, for the great and hideous crime of criticizing Microsoft, I am
labelled a 'clod', 'linux fanboy' (whatever the hell that means), or 'immature'.

So be it. I really don't give a rat's ass what you or Clifford think about
what I have to say, you're the ones taking this thread offtopic, not me.

And if anyone's 'whinging', it's you. What's with this 'I don't like the way you
guys are talking, I'm leaving'?

Pffffft. Don't let the door hit you on the ass on the way out.

Too bad. If not for the curmudgeons, this coulda been an informative thread.
