"Well, I don't want viruses munching my precious local storage so I run Linux." Doesn't look like Microsoft "forced" you to buy Windows then. Where is their monopoly on you?

-Well, I don't want viruses munching my precious local storage so I run Linux. -- so you do admit that you will always have local storage for yourself even though you don't think other people need it. if you could see yourself and how any thinking person would perceive sunw after reading your posts; well sunw might just fire you as what you're doing here is a waste of their money. you're exposing sunw for what they are, better than any of your enemies could. andy
