You could have some valid points. But your logic is flawed, so your argument sounds like a guy that stepped on a board, it flewed up and hit him in the face. Your lashing out from a noob point of view on Windows and Open Source. I use both for different reasons. Both have there draw back and both have there advantages.
Is Microsoft a monopoly, yes. But I dont blame them for it, Bill Gates was a hell of a competitor. I dont even think they should lost any of the lawsuits. Becoming a monopoly was nothing but smart thinking in the begining. All these companies that go after them for having IE/Media Player and so on claming it give them the advantage. Duh, its his Operating System, he has the right to install any programs he want to. Thats like saying Chevy cant put Windshield Wipers/Floor mats/Tires because it give Chevy or the company that made them a unfair advantage.
But your attitude and really noobish understanding of Open Source just kills any points you could be making for Windows. I mean its really like you have no understanding of it at all. Its not even worth taking it point by point. Even your main reason because of compensation, its like your making a judgment call without any knowledge or concept or even reasoning. Humpty Dumpty syndrome.
