    I call them Rootards as well. They're a pain in the arse. I've bought a dashcam in case I hit one of the fuckwits as they whizz brainlessly the wrong way up one way streets.

  9. Microsoft don't really care about businesses that small either. Dislodging Microsoft is going to take a lot more than moving your local shop to Libre Office.

  10. You have no idea just how entrenched Windows is in organisations. If an OS wants to replace corporate Windows desktops it will need some way of running Windows software.

    Do you remember a time when there were different connectors for phones, even ones from the same manufacturer. I do. It was less than 10 years ago and consumers were being ripped off. Micro B isn't perfect but far better than the mess we had before. How would the magical market fairy dust have solved the issue?

    Had they not threatened it then we'd have the same situation as laptops where you can't even get a standard power supply for different laptops from the same manufacturer.
