RE: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] Microsoft: Evil Empire or Suitable Softw are?

["Ross, Matt" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Viruses are well supported by their authors, are 
  running on most systems, their program code is 
  fast, compact and efficient and 
  they tend to become more sophisticated as they mature 
  So, Windows is _not_ a virus 

Windows is running on most systems (even without considering wine)

Their code is very efficient for destructive purposes.  The only place where
it isn't fast is when you're trying to use it for good.  Compactness is
masked with bulk code to give the impression that it contains a real O/S.

Windows hasn't matured, its just gotten older..
