Oh, I am well aware that Windows works. My day job is front-end development
for an enterprise-level web services group running on Windows servers. My
desktop is also Windows for that reason (we use all sorts of Windows tools).
I just like to take any opportunity that seems appropriate to express that I
personally actually hate Windows. :)

Thank you Ken and Jonathan, for your input. I appreciate the education and
advice.
