Hello.... alll Even FreeBSD, or even any BSD (ok, OSX is BSD...) is mention in the BBC survey, I notice that: 1) They claim that 90% of the persons use windows, but in the publish list, is just the contrary... only 2 ones use windows, and like it, and one of them just for games.... 2) The person that likes windows vista, likes it because he can make a good backup to save things when he lost them, this shows a common thing that happens when you use windows... (you will lost something)... so you need backups, winzips, winrars, avg, norton... and zilions of useless things that make your computer work better.. when in reality, all you need is a good gnome 2.16 or a kde 3.5.4... 3) 90% of the persons use the computer to write documents, access internet, and use email. so the number or persons using Mac and Linux is rasing.... 4) To use the vista, probably you will need an upgrade... (a good graphics for directx10, 64bit cpu, and 2 gb of memory...) here will cost 1000 dollars.. 5) more than half of the persons were windows users and switched to OSX or Linux Here in my country (Brazil) I am selling notebooks with FreeBSD and gnome 2.16 to high executives. and is doing well.. so it shows that the success of the computer is in the easy of use and not in the features it has.... The more important the person in the company, the easy to use and less features must have the computer..... so for me, gnome is the best choice..... Sergio
