You know, this sour grapes crap is the one thing that I hate the most about the Linux "movement."
There is no BEST operating system, at least not one that I have found. I use both NT and Linux at home, and they are both good for different things. Yes, you can use Linux as a domain controller in an internal network (ala the MS Domain model PDC/BDC/Etc.). Yes, you can use NT as a web server. But it's much easier to administer a domain with NT and it's much easier to run a web server under Linux. (IIS, anyone?)
If all the M$ bashing Linux hippies would get off of their horse and instead of wasting all thier breath exhaulting Bill Gates as the devil they would exhault Linus as the god maybe there would be some progress made in this "movement."
Puhleeze... I suppose next you will tell me that it's going to run over kids with your new snowblower and cook meth in your kitchen. I think not.
More likley M$ will follow it's trend of competition by elimination by buying out Real, the only real commercial competitor here and slowly phazing their product out.
Wordperfect does (or at least used to) include a font which comes out as barcodes. Any worthwhile label software will do it too. The bar code is just the zip code.
