And you are a rude person which is not in a position to decide on that. I am in a higher position now.
I did not say they always choose proprietary. I said that will be their preference. I also said if they ever decide to go open source they'll go with a more popular one.
I have been an IT manager in a bank and I do not agree with you. OS selection is not just a technical matter.
Those who have selected proprietary OS will replace it with another proprietary one. If they intend to use open source they will more likely to choose the most popular one.
We were using HP-UX and Solaris. When we decided to use an open source OS for a particular server farm we selected Linux because that selection is less dangerous politically (it matches the consensus) and Linux market is more diverse and more supported.
Start cleaning with/. please. I hate this terrible implementation of Ajax. It is just awful.

Economics? Are you kidding? Economics is full of mathematics and mathematical models.
In sociology, and psychology some scientists build models for phenomena and those models are sometimes mathematical. I am a CS scientist but I work on building such models (models for human behaviors) and most of those models are mathematical.
One of the major searches people do is to search for their name.
My name is almost specific and 99% of the searches actually about me. google provides 5000 entries while Bing shows only 150 items.
I was hoping that Bing can provide an alternative to Google and gave it more than a few trials. However it disappointed me. I could not even find my own conference papers and articles on Bing. On Google, the first entry points to my homepage while Bing used to show a very old mailing list email of mine (which strangely belongs to 1998 !!!)
Another example is my favorite website. Google has indexed 5 million pages on that site while Bing has only indexed 10,000 pages!!. Obviously the index size of Google is much much bigger.
How I am supposed to use Bing when I am sure it does not list 90-95% of the search results 9in comparison to Google).
He has been a lecturer and researcher in many US and Russian universities. He just turned down the last offer by a US university to return to his own university in Russia.
Not anyone. He does not speak to reporters and paparazzis which have taken him as a attention monger actors.
A few Chinese mathematicians tried to downplay his work and advertise their own work instead and he did not expected to see such dirty behaviors in scientific community.
I myself went back to university to become a scientist because I could not bear politics in business environments. I went to academics because I thought there is more ethics there.
Now about Chinese. They have conquered scientific journals as editors and reviewers. Now they invent theories (sometimes false, sometimes terrible in quality) and they send those craps to conquered journals. They have conquered the whole scientific publishing chain and they do whatever unethical things you may think of.
I was administrator in a university, a financial association and a bank. I HATE Netware. Specially terrible implementation, reliability and complexity of NDS.
I was also a Netware network programmer in another company for 1.5 years and established a new TCP/IP based network software (under 3.11, 4.XX,5.00) for them. Again the API and Watcom C were headache.
I remember nights when I worked until the morning to bring up the servers or clients or... or... or... while my windows servers did not give me any problem during 5 years of my service in that bank. Linux and Unix servers were less headache after windows.
I do all my programming in Java but I disagree with you on Java being superior to c# and.NET in general.
C# for example is a more advanced language in comparison to Java. I am sorry that C# is not easily usable on any platform and it is a pitty that it is not very common in scientific field.
I am a CS researcher and I am forced to use C or Java because most of the researchers do.
See my previous post. Fars news agency is called "False news agency" by people. Their staff are from Basij and Sepah (IRGC). They always fabricate disgusting (yes, disgusting) shameless lies.
In Iran they call it "False news agency" and that's because the staff are from Basij and Sepah and they fabricate hundreds of disgusting lies everyday. They even fabricate individuals (as if they are real people) and then talk with them and publish those talks !! Then suddenly photos of the person in Sepah and Basij clothes are discovered from somewhere and put on the internet by people.
Even Windows xp is 10 times more user friendly and many times more beautiful than most of the Linux distributions (including ubuntu).
When we talk about ubuntu Linux, we normally don't say ubuntu 8.04 or 9.0 etc have such and such market share. Same goes for windows. Windows is windows. UI and OS evolve from version to version. Like any other software.
Last time I checked for one of my websites with 150 million page views per month (target is a specific country), 99% of the users use windows.
Father, I am 45 and have a PhD in computer science. I never obtained a single PC or Laptop with windows installed on it. But I installed the version I liked on it myself.
Learn to be polite and do not assume things before you know your audience.
Now if you want to downgrade to IE6, should microsoft give you a prize in addition to allowing you to do that stupid thing?
They don't want to support Windows-XP and they do everything to discourage usage of that OS. What is wrong with this?
Do you know who obtained the majority of the stock of the IR Telecommunication company 3 months ago?
You don't know and I am telling you. Sepah (IRGC) which is the militia army of Iran obtained it.
Now why they are interested in national email? Because people use email to inform each other of uncensored anti government news. Hundreds of people have been arrested in recent months because they have sent these things using SMS and they control SMS and therefore they have been able to arrest them.
Now it appears that they have not been able to read people's emails on gmail (because they can read Yahoo and they have prepared necessary software from years ago). Having mail accounts on their own servers they can control and access every bit of the information.
Have you ever heard of OOP PHP as in 5.2 and higher?
What about frameworks like ZendFramework, CakePHP etc...
Obviously you don't know about PHP's market share, performance, coding tools, etc. The new generation PHP applications have nothing less than other languages. I have been doing J2EE for at least 7 years but I always use PHP+MySQL for high traffic websites. One of my websites has 1 million members and up to 8000 concurrent users. 4 quad servers (2 MySQL + 2 Apache) serve 150 million page views per month.
Do you watch too much aggressive films?
Firefox mission is to provide benefit to users (of all OS and environments) not to start or engage in wars. Bush's legacy of thing war is everywhere:(
Yes, you are right that they do this for ensuring compatibility.
As an example they do not let Flash to run on iPhone, iPad etc. to ensure compatibility... compatibility with their pocket of course

Didn't your family teach you to be polite?
He has been a professor in very top US universities in past. Being jobless does not always mean being a poor beggar.
These paparazzies have taken him as those attention monger actors.
Just leave him alone. He wants to have a simple calm life and as he stated he has what he wants. He lives with his mother and that's enough for him.
Incorrect.
He has been a lecturer and researcher in many US and Russian universities. He just turned down the last offer by a US university to return to his own university in Russia.
You can read more in wikipedia page about him.
Not anyone. He does not speak to reporters and paparazzis which have taken him as a attention monger actors.

Because he is courageous enough to reject $1m. Are you?
Only heroes think they have what they want. We normal people always think we are incapable because we did not have what we needed.

Agreed. VIC20 was my first step into PCs :) My first Basic program was a number guessing game :)
Because Linux does not have less features and capabilities than windows except the ease of use and better UI (which you simply call eye candy!).
I do not care whether you believe or not. You are free to present your pleasant personality here.

What do you mean by the word "Important". If you mean something that enables you to capture 90% of the market , then eye candy is more important.
