Yes to MS I am a linux troll for stating that some things would work better
with exsisting products with linux and the linux list call me a MS troll as
I will not go along with this whole Anti microsoft flame.

There are task that for simplicy I use windows for , there are things I use
linux for that I would never consider windows for. I even have stuff I will
only use Apple products for. I personally
would never consider using anything but Final Cut Pro.

I dont feel I should be bound by one OS just because the core population of
that OS does not like the other OSes.

Now if you feel that I am a troll because of that. Well fine that is you
opinion and your more than welcome to it.
