Oh good. I was afraid nobody was going to post an operating systems
comparison/flame war without setting the Followup-to: field
this year. I'd almost lost my faith in human nature.

What will happen next. Two reasoned replies will follow, and then sombody
who feels their ox has been gored will flame away causing 80 to 100
flames to be posted in a discussion that will last for 7 weeks, but
will not completely die down for 12 weeks.

Take it to comp.sys.misc. Take it to alt.flame, take to junk. Hell,
take it OUSTIDE and drown it.

And note that the appropriate use of Followup-to: fields set
correctly in the header works wonders.

Hrrrmphf.
