Sorry, but I couldn't resist this open source analogy, given the political
season that we are in.

M$ is like the socialist candidate (fill in the blank, there are several)
who has no problem writing checks funded by future tax obligations.
It makes people feel good and allows them to go about their day-to-day
business without thinking too much about how they have given their
decisions over to their leaders.

Linux is like that tiny minority that detests socialists, who think about
what is behind political demagoguery and who back candidates
who believe in the wisdom of our founding fathers and fiscal responsibility.
(Not a hard choice, there is only one).
