Go do a lil reading up on the history of GUI, esp. on Alan Kay... the very concept of having "windows" is stolen by M$. Moreover, X had been around since 1984.
How about tabbed browsing?
And I never knew Windowns has wobbly windows.

Are you sure about the rendering time? I don't know about all the fancy tests, but I personally used all the browsers there are out there, and IE(6,7,8) is just all the way down. Well, probably the pages that it renders faster are the pages that it wouldn't render correctly at all.
And if you want fancy tests, go try them yourself and tell me the results. Acid3 anyone?

Well, I know a famous one: "It's faster than any previous Windows version".
And look at how they're training BestBuy workers to tell customers that Windows is safer and does things that *nix cannot.
> I often hear linux is refered to as "safe", well, there is no safe os.
There is no safe OS, but there is safer OS. Just look at the facts. And don't tell me that *nix is more secure because it's less used. Look at 500 top supercomputers, how many uses Windows? Last time I checked there was 1. Look at how many percent of Apache used compared to IIS? Don't tell me that people hack for fame, coz hacking into a supercomputer or a webserver brings them more fame than you could imagine.
AFAIK, no malware for *nix ever get out of the labs - alive.

Making a good product and get paid for it is not evil.
Making a good product and force people to use it is evil.
Making a crappy product and force people to use it is evil.
Think vendor lock-in.
