Quote - Need more companies to take on MS for an OS. More competitions, less costs.

 

There's the old saying: "It's the software stupid".  The main reason why PC's running windows are so ubiquitous and make up the vast majority of all (home) computer systems, despite other platforms being arguably superior from a technical standpoint.

Right now the only platform that runs Poser, Bryce, Carrara, and all my games is Windows, so I'm stuck using that.  I have an AMD64 processor, but I'm stuck on a 32 bit system because support for XP64 blows (probably intentionally), and I'm not going anywhere near Windows Virus-ta.

Maybe once ReactOS is stable enough to be used as an everyday system Micro$oft will finally get smart if they want to continue to be able to market Windows to anyone other than the most technologically illterate of computer users.
