    You're forgetting that first or exclusive usage is no longer a requirement for a patent or copyright. The practice has become "patent/copyright it, and force any challenger to pay to have it removed". Prior art is being ignored on a wholesale basis now.

    Perhaps if you're extremely accustomed to Windows, and have no Linux experience. Not saying you're wrong for that, but sticking with Windows, in the end, is nothing more than a "confort" factor. I use Linux on a daily basis, all our systems at home run Linux, and using Windows after that is like having your right hand and left foot duct-taped together; awkward, uncomfortable, and something's going to come crashing down REAL soon now.
