MS has made Windows so simple that switching to another OS other than a Mac would be hard for them.
Windows? Simple? Do me a favour. Windows is NOT simple, Windows is FAMILIAR. And as soon as it does something unfamiliar the vast majority of users are lost and require the help of a geek to figure it out.
Yes that's their historical beliefs i.e. not anymore. Check this out. This is an acceptance by the hierarchy of something that I was taught at Catholic school in the 1980s; namely that evolution was God's method of populating the world. I don't care what the American Christians think. They aren't the whole of Christianity, or even a major part of it.
If it's unelected then how come I will be choosing who my Member of the European Parliament will be from a list of candidates on June 4th? Do you even have a clue or do you base your entire knowledge of a union of 27 countries on the ill-informed complaints of one fucking taxi driver?
Linux, being completely free, can be whatever people want it to be. Linux will remain awesome for you as you will not be forced to use the illiterates' version at any point.
That came about because capitalist lack of oversight led to the formation of huge corporations that if they go bust will devastate large sections of the workforce. Either you pay to keep these companies afloat with the promise of eventual repayments of the costs when the economy picks up or else you pay the welfare of all the people put out of work.
In an ideal world however we live in a world where there are millions of Win32-only apps and the cost of rewriting them is prohibitive. People are not going to leave Windows if their software doesn't work, and that doesn't mean things like Office and Photoshop, it means much more obscure stuff.
Until Linux or another suitable OS can flawlessly run Win32 apps and drivers the cost of migration will be too prohibitive for most organisations that depend on Win32-only applications.
Is the EU accumulating a huge debt? Is the EU even a government? Perhaps you should consider doing some more research before equating a fairly loose federation of independent nations with the United States of America which is just the one nation.
It's not the Labour Party that regularly categorises members of Liberty as traitors who should be strung up. The right-wing press who to a person are normally life-long enemies of Fake Labour are completely in favour of all their fascism in the name of "national security" and "protecting the kids".
And you think group foo won't violently resist such a thing? And make the problem far far worse. And won't it make it very dangerous for British tourists to travel just about anywhere where members of group foo may live?
Ok fair enough. As a poster below has categorised himself I'd say I was an avid player but nowhere near the kind of player that logs on at 5pm and goes to bed at 1am without a break.

And that's why you should make sure that your statistics cover all Christians, not just the loopy Puritan offshoots that inhabit your country.

Stealing caviar out of the mouths of those poor executives!
We'll have to clean it all up.

Windows is proprietary what the bloody hell are you talking about?
Off the top of my head: lack of malware, lower hardware requirements, no OS cost added to the cost of the PC.

If corporations want the rights of a person they should have the responsibilities of a person too.
AMD are an EU company? Since when? Perhaps you should let go of your anti-EU hatred and learn something about the case.
I'm sure architect used to be a noun not a verb.
Aren't you allowed to use something like nLite to create OS images?

Consumers will only be paying these fines if they buy Intel's products which presumably will be less attractive due to them raising their prices.
It's socialist to require large companies to obey the laws in places where they do business?

Agreed. People who insist on this incredibly obnoxious behaviour should be beaten to within an inch of their lives.

You're right - take all your money out of your bank account(s) right now.
Everyone knows the Earth and therefore the Universe is only 6,000 years old.
