Yeah, so choose your poison.  All software sucks.  Even the most used
software sucks too much to be worth using.

Is that cynical enough for you, or do we have to resort to Godwin's law?

I've heard your position.  I understand it.  I can't solve the problem 
(and it's largely not a problem for me) and you aren't giving me any 
ideas to help me solve it.  On top of that I think that Freedom is the 
most important part of software.  So can we keep the philosophy on CLUE 
Talk?

(Hmm.  Maybe we need an alternative to Godwin where any mention of RMS
ends the thread.)

You can't claim that Linux requires hardware upgrades as fast as 
Windows.  Be serious.
