Deluge of F*cking Sh*t's insane rhetoric to the contrary, there's
nothing wrong with having a Windows system at hand, if you must.
After, Bill "I'm a Thug" Gates got his lame OS, formats, and protocols
into dominance, and actually has a reasonably useful product now
(although Microsoft seems to want to torpedo XP), which led a lot of
companies to write solely for Windows. And Microsoft approaches
Scientology in its aggressive, monomaniacal, strident, jeering, and
unrelenting approach to the least sign of opposition. Hence, like
taxes, Windows is difficult to avoid.
Even when you hate it, or the thuggish company that created it.
