please excuse the brevity of this post, but
a) Windows sucks;
b) therefore, why nationalize it? Better to break up
Microsoft and regulate/police the operating system remnant;
c) Linux is already "public" in a way that does not
require government spending or regulation. Leave
well enough alone. Maybe appropriate some funds
to speed the development of Linux add-ons (like
a usable front-end).
d) my lack of self-respect should be evident by now.
Cheers,
Max
