Wink What WINDOWS is not?
Hey!
There are many LINUX names that include "is not": Pine Is Not Elm, Linux Is Not UniX, etc... Ping Is Not Good ;-)
Let's think about what WINDOWS is not! I found some abbreviations, but they are not too good: Windows Is Not DO(w)S, Windows Is Not Designed as Open (Wide) Source, Windows Is Not Dhe Only Weird System... hmm
