So, what you're saying is that if Bill Gates had never existed, the
state of computing today, would be the same as what it will be ca.
2038?


Not sure I buy that.


What I'm saying is that with Bill Gates illegally monopolizing the PC
operating system scene for the past 30 years, instead of healthy
competition where the best products are used, the consumer has been
stuck in using the worlds worst operating system, and have been stuck
there for around 30 years. Vista seems to be no different, or possibly
the worse of the bunch from what I've been hearing.
