Umm...Krishnakant, I'm not playing the devils advocate but one should 
always have a balanced opinion. Yours seems quite skewed. You can 
always advocate GNU/Linux without showing windows in a bad light. 
Windows, as an OS isn't all that bad. What are its strong points are to 
be acknowledged and incorporated into GNU/Linux.

Haha....so unguided missiles are toys? routers are toys? Oh not to 
mention asterisk which is replacing CISCO's heavy duty VoIP boxes are a 
toy? The OS running 70% of the web's infrastructure are toys? Haha. 
That in itself is a joke :P

BTW you cracked a very good joke Krishnakant :) Good presence of mind ;)
