two Singapore programmers have developed a system to allow one handheld operating system to run any application - Windows or Linux.

They'll stick with M$ as long as they have to wade through piles of documentation on how to use the one that keeps running and running in order to actually use it...
People replying to my sig annoy me. That's why I change it all the time.
They never will switch as long as the idiots who decide what to buy continue to fall victim to both their own stupidity (why not listen to your tech staff?) and M$'s flashy marketing and salesdroids.

Or as long as they continue to see a culture around Linux that takes every opportunity to insult and abuse them. See, I don't even care if you're right if you can't talk to me like a civilized intelligent human being.
... When I hear the words "linux culture" I reach for my revolver
