Nothing can beat Microsoft at the desktop simply because the mindset of how to use a PC means Windows. You can cheer about how you install it on grandma's but for every installation, there are other 10 new shinny Windows 7 installations being sold. Linux desktop is a fun dream to toy around with just like those who tweak their cars...
Sadly the only "Unix" challenge to a Windows desktop is the MacOS.
bah... POS!

Silverlight installation failed because upgrading Silverlight for Developers requires the latest Silverlight for Developers installer.
If you are not a developer and want to avoid this error in the future, follow these steps:
* Close your browser.
* Uninstall Silverlight by following the Silverlight Uninstall Instructions.
* Download and install the latest version of Silverlight.

Isn't our role to go destroy ourselves so that JC can put a stop to it? or does our world have real choices?
So dont upgrade!... and have M$ keep fixing XP until 2012+ That should be the judge's order.
Fact is M$ Vista adds 0 value to me, my company, or your country's GDP..
Adobe, Adobe, Adobe.. you are asking for it:)
Just remember Borland Delphi, Novell, OS/2, and the many products that at one point competed with M$'s dev monopoly..
Now where is that Linux suite of publishing tools? now that may #@!# M$ a bit...
Not necessarily, there is new stuff coming up from M$...
- Rumor has it Outlook will have a heavy makeover. More social plugins and what not so that you stop going to social sites and stick to Outlook.:)

M$ will offer a superb Office integration and SharePoint as a portal for collaboration...
Nothing in the open source industry matches this.. nothing I say..
Dudes,
If we are running Linux, Windows, or Mac then we have failed. Besides, the technological singularity should be alive and well by then. Linux and Windows will simply be part of history...
I run ubuntu and I agree that it may not be ready for the MAC OS type of guys( Try installing compiz-fusion), but Linux is fun and I am installing it whenever I see a need..
So who is Walt Mossberg ?

Guy walks into a bar and orders a "bin laden"
What's that? replies the bar tender
"Two shots in the head and a splash"
Since apparently we are going back to the gold standard, why not look for good old fashion gold instead?
No bro, using SharePoint is a bit more crazy... lovely viewstate + core.css + shit lots of postbacks for any click...
But but.. silverlight will solve all these problems and more, no?
NOT!
Bullcrap... I am a gamer and I can bench 200, exercise 5 times a week, and I can kick some major video game a$$ ...

2.- Have them go at it
3.- Laugh at their culture, religion's belief, politics, and overall problems
4.- Sell the broadcast to other aliens
5.- Profit!
