and what pray has this to do in a tech forum. You want us to fight on this? The only religion for which geeks will fight is linux vs mac vs windows. the order in which i said that says a bit about me doesn't it? :) And yes, you could say we are religious about our favorite Operating systems.

nah, religion and terrorism don't gel too well. Linux should be called a cult. (I don't think so, I am just verbalizing your feelings in the correct terminology). I should know to talk about religion. I work in a church.

not necessarily. I like linux but I don't necessarily hate ms. Like we say over here, you can be either honest or rich. Choose what you want and stick to it. There is nothing wrong with either.

Mac OS X is communist : You either work my way or leave the Mac community

Linux is democratic : Anyone can come, write code, piss the code :D & leave

Microsoft is hybrid : Anyone can come, make an application & leave. Either he can open source the code for others to work on, or keep the code closed.
