yes, but now that microsoft has managed to cripple their competition the

To use a car analogy, would you rather have the ability to purchase a
fire suppression system that was compatible with the ford Pinto gas
tank, or would rather not have a gas tank so prone to exploding in a
collision?
I'm no fan of Microsoft, but if they can build a more secure OS such
that it happens to keep applications from portions of the OS that no
application should be mucking with as a side effect, more power to
em.

If your facts are right, prove them as already been asked before. Your
arguments are pure nonsense unless you can provide proof. What the EU
is doing, should have been done decades ago. You where saying earlier,
not to buy MS products. If you are not a hardware savy person, ever
tried to buy a pre-build pc without M$ on it, but rather with an
alternative OS? Close to impossible unless you know your way around.

Hugh? No one ever wanted that there is one OS that does it all. We
should all be able to make our own decisions and should be allowed to
chose which browser, AV / FW /AS software we want to install. MS has no
right what so ever to force us into a particular decision. Only reason
why MS IE is still so widely spread is that companies have preinstalled
pc's delivered with MS XP Pro and IE pre-setup.
It is outright impudent to DRM their system to lock others out. You
will even have problems dual booting Vista and Linux, because MS is
trying to lock the competition out.
M$ monopoly has gotten me so far that I have already switched to MS XP
with only freeware on it and all unnecessary, insecure, resource-hoggy
crap to be moved off the system and a dual boot with Linux has made my
day. Suddenly the system runs much faster and things work better.

Wrong again.
MS is a company, thus only interested in market shares and making
profit. MS does not know what is right or wrong in the consumers eyes.
To improve competition and to represent the interests of the average
consumer, the EU parliament does a great job and should just continue
the way they are going with M$ now....

To answer your question, start here (particularly Page 1).
My new, favorite tome. Not your typical MS-bashing by 14-year old
script kiddies. I could not have said it better myself.
Overall, the major problem is that for most us, there is no choice.
Choice is good. See the telephone and cable companies for similar
frustrations. Speaking of telephone companies, MS and monopolies,
Even MS fanboys such as you have to admit that there is a _serious_
conflict of interest involved when Microsoft sells a defective,
unsecure product (XP, Vista), and then offers to secure it for $50.00
USD per year.
You are /correct/ about the socialists at the US DOJ. The only thing
that came out of the anti-trust lawsuit against MS, and the only thing
that could have come out of it, was that a tremendous amount of money
was taken from consumers and put into the pockets of lawyers,
politicians, bureaucrats, and other ne'er-do-wells.
You are /incorrect/ about Windows One Care Live. It is the principle
of the thing.

You are absolutely correct.
But I have read the law in question, and I never see me being affected by
that law.
I recently flew through some airports in Europe, Frankfurt and the Amsterdam
Airports. Now they do security right, they do use profiling. When our flight
from Kuwait landed in both those Airports, leaving the airplane, the Arab
passengers where singled out and screened a bit more than other passengers.
Try to do that in America and people would scream bloody murder.

As I expected you completely missed the point with the reference to

Also while we are here could you give me a description of the subsides
provided to Airbus - I ask this as I doubt you actually know what it is
so happy googling. Of course maybe you'll even come across other areas
such as farming which makes CAP look ok. Free trade I think America has
forgotten what it actually is.

First off, I would like to restate that I am no fan of MS, yes I use their
products, but that does not mean I am a fan. Being that so many apps are
done with windows i.e. like office procucts, you need to run office
yourself. Yes there is some open source stuff out there. But to look at an
office doc or spreadsheet, it is best to use office.
I myself at work only use Unix servers and workstations, and would not trust
MS in the job I do.
MS cannot really say they have decent server products, as they do not on all
counts MS servers suck.
But yet we see many companies using MS servers, all because of the excellent
marketing that MS has.

Granted that MS has positioned itself to be a dominant force in the home,
and business for computer use, pretty much ensuring that you have to use MS
products.
That is why I say let MS bundle all these security apps into windows, as
hopefully it will be done in the kludge like way we know MS to do, and when
it fails and security is still an issue, if not worse, people will finally
say enough is enough.
I would love to see HP or SUN come up with a Unix based distro for home and
small business users, that is affordable to those users. Of course
applications would also be needed to enable users to get away from windows,
but until that happens windows really has the market by the balls.
Taking MS to court over anti trust and monopoly issues will always fail,
because it is the market that put MS where it is. The people knowing about
the security holes, knowing that windows is a resource hog and not very
stable when used as a server, still went out and bought the product.
I have to admitt that MS marketing is top notch, and that has done wonders
for MS.

It has been well documented. Airbus is pretty much a state run business
receiving all kinds of protections from the state.
I will add that the Airbus jets are quite nice though.

Actually no. I have no problem with the state detaining those that seek to
do harm to mass numbers of people.
If some ignorant Arab wants to strap a bomb on himself to kill hundreds just
because his so called religious leader lied to him and said he will get 72
virgins in heaven, yes I want my government to get that guy and detain him,
if not eradicate him as he is a threat to many people. And we should not
stop there, heck we should be going after those so called religious leaders
who are sending these people out. These so called religious leaders of Islam
need to keep their people ignorant so they can find people to strap bombs to
themselves.
I say it is time for them to go, and for us to bring education to those in
Islamic countries.

So you basic argument has just fallen to pieces then - it's ok if other
countries do it is it? In that case Europe can be as anti-country/area
name here as other countries also do it. Oh and by the way you still
actually know which incident I'm talking about do you?

I thought you said subsides not protection - are you changing you
argument on this as well.
Conclusion:
1/10 for your debating skills must try harder. Hint - it's best to
actually have a grasp of the basic facts before you go wading in ...

I don't either, but only if the state can prove it, in an open court of
law.
None of this 'detain them for x number of years just because we want to,
nevermind any *proof* nonsense, we are the government, we will do as we
please'.
Wait until the neighbor's kid, that you yelled at last week, calls the FBI
and tells them you are a terrorist, and based _solely_ on that call they
arrest you and keep you incommunicado for as long as they like. You still
beilieve that you are not affected by this? Heck, the police don't even
have to apologize if they break into the wrong address anymore. And
people don't believe we live in a police state already!
Just as a side note - back in the day (late fifties, early sixties) when I
was going to elementary school, we were taught how bad the Soviet Union
was with their 'snitch' society, how people were encouraged over there to
'tattle' on each other and how terrible such a society was. However,
nowadays, here in the 'good ole' USofA, we are now doing exactly the same
thing. Students are actually paid cash money by the police to 'rat out'
on their friends.
Remember what Ben Franklin said:
Those that give up freedom for security deserve neither. (something like
that)

And their parents. But a lot of that especially snitching on your parents
were bought about by those on the left, like teacher unions, teachers, and
left leaning politicians.

Yes, but with the new world order of suitcase nukes, and deadly germs that
can be carried by a person, you have to accept that security measures are
needed, especially when states like Germany or France would be more than
happy to fund an Arab to come over to America and release a weapon like
that.
Not only do we have to be concerned about the intentions of radical moslems,
we need to watch our so called friends like Germany and France.

No honestly it was the second most stupid post I've seen in a long time.
I can't believe that any one person can be so sure they are right when
they are complete wrong. You're not strongly religious are you as you
seem to be stuck with dogma regardless on any facts they may be presented.

The facts are that radical islamists are bent on causing harm to America and
her citizens.

Religion is not the issue here. And I am not stuck on any religious dogma.
I recognize the threat coming from those so called Islamic religious leaders
who are encouraging their ignorant followers to engage in violence against
western interests, especially American people.

Yes, yes, that is all very good.
But the fact remains that the procedures that the government is putting in
place has no effect on those that DO NOT WANT TO KILL MANY PEOPLE.
The only people worried about the direction of government in the war against
terror, is those that have something to hide.
