I read a great article about the reason that Microsoft Windows is a dangerously naive operating system from the ground up. It was built with a different paradigm that pretended that everyone would be nice and that there were no other operating systems or application developers (save it’s own licensed mob-family) that were even in existence!

Okay, it’s a little bit strong. But read this summary and then the article for yourself…

As a Linux desktop user himself, system administrator Chris Spencer did not relish having to clean up his wife’s infected Windows PC after it had become compromised. By the time he’d solved the immediate problem, Spencer had become so fed up with spyware, trojans, viruses, and spam, that he decided it was time to write a letter to the world. It’s a simple message: it’s time to switch from Windows to Linux. “The letter serves as a guide,” Spencer explains, “taking you through some of the history of Microsoft right up to this present day.”
