I find it incredibly amusing when poeple bitch about the quality,
stability, and security of Misrosoft products.

Then they gloat about the quality, stability, and security of
"Open Source" software (basically, quoting such documents as
"The Cathedral and the Bazaar", without ever having read the
source code for which it is a case study, to quantify exactly
what the quality, stability, and security is that they are
talking about.

Then, based on all that, they go and pick a license which
precludes most commercial use by companies, such that they
have to keep doing business the way that was first being
complained about...
