Quote from Buffie:
Does this mean I will never own an Apple product or own a Linux computer? Had you asked me that 6 months ago Iwould have said, "Duh, of course not." But even the hardest of heads can be changed. I now own a computer with Ubuntu and I own 2 iPhones. Will I own an Apple PC? If donated, I would LOL. Why do I say this? Because my mom was right when she said, "money doesn't grow on trees." In the future, I may actually buy an Apple PC, but for now I stay with Windows.
The next thing that was asked was, "Do you think there is room for both Windows and Linx?" Absolutely! There are too many nerds in the world to let Linux die. Linux really is a nerd's delight. With the fully customizable atmosphere and the ability to have complete control of your OS, who wouldn't love it? Plus with the user actually dictating what changes need to be made instead of a team of "professionals," Linux holds something Windows will never have: 100% customer backing. The only negative thing I have ever read about Linux, is from users who are less than computer savy.
This brings me to my final point. Windows will be a huge player in the OS world due to ease of use. Not everyone is computer savy and able to do "nerd code". Plus they have things like the automotive industry in their back pocket. Yes even your car runs Windows. But will they always be top dog? That I cannot answer but I suspect if Windows 7 bombs like Vista did, I am putting my money on no. Already Apple is taking a bite out of Windows' profit with mildly funny commercials attacking the PC, playing on the way people have with Vista. Apple is opening the eyes of Microsoft victims to a new horizon. Only time will tell if the Apple will fall from the tree, but I have a feeling the Windows will be shut before long.
Great stuff Buffie!!! Keep it coming!!!
