Indeed, yet many of the wintrolls seem to think the only viable choice is
to eliminate the options. Go figger.

I think it's the 'long term prisoner mentality'.
If you have been wearing leg irons every day for 10 years, you're bound
to feel uncomfortable (for a while) after they are taken off ?
Windows uses have, in my opinion, so little real choice that to a Linux
user like me, it's hard to distinguish from NO choice.

Wgat are you babbling about?
You do realize that the top tier Linux applications are also available for
the Windows platform as well?
Open Office.
Gimp
Apache
Audacity
etc....
We have far more choice than you Linux users have.
We can at least choose between Photoshop or Gimp.
You can't, unless it's an antique version under wine which runs like crap.
