I do not quite understand why so many people hate Windows. I have
both Linux and Windows installed in my home PC. I use mostly Linux
at home but I do not have problems with running Windows at work.

For engineers doing engineering work, I think most of the people
can not really avoid Windows at work. Windows XP is very solid as
far as I see. My Linux installation is pretty solid as well. So I like my
Linux (Ubuntu 6.06/6.10/FC5) but I have no problems with Windows
either.
