It can't run IE7, Office, Visual Studio, thousands of drivers,
huge libraries of professional apps, etc.

Hint: There are applications not developed by Microsoft Corporation.

It is even possible to do professional code development without
using MS Corp. products. I'm knee deep in such a project
right now. I go weeks without having to touch a Windows box.

Relf is just trolling--many run Firefox, OpenOffice, GIMP,
thousands of drivers, huge libraries of professional apps,
etc. Mac OS X is another excellent platform built on Unix.
I suspect the Windows platform days are numbered. Let's
review this in five years.
