Mayor Of R'lyehAnd sales figures show that fewer people are brainwashed into believing that Windows is the only possible choice. So besides slinging gratuitous insults, what's your point, Mayor?
Most people simply aren't braindead OS bigots like you are George.
When they buy a computer they ask 'What do I want to do with it?' instead of clinging tightly to an OS. They then look around for a machine that will fit those needs for the least amount of money.And the smarter ones also say "What do I *not* want in this product?"
Unlike you ,a guy who lives in the 'swank' side of town crammed between the industrial zone and the freeway, most people don't have a bucketload of spare cash. They insist on getting value.And some people see value in not having to deal with certain types of bullshit that exist on the Windows side.
That's where your lame-o car analogy falls apart.Don't fret: your car analogy falls apart too.
If you must have a car analogy it would be closer to say you've looked at Cadillacs at two different car dealerships. Sure they each have a few features that the other doesn't have but its nothing that you think is a big deal. For all intents and purposes they're the same car with the same ability to do what you want a car to do.And they're both pieces of crap from GM. Analogy catastrophic failure.
The only real difference is that Dealer A is selling his for $2,000 less than Dealer B is selling his for. Which are you going to buy from?Not enough information yet, because the " **don't want** in this product" hasn't been evaluated:
