      The argument is basically that Windows is the most popular operating system so it should be the best or be good quality and ignores the fact that Microsoft shoves Windows down peoples throats. They have no incentive to make Windows better because OEMs will ship it anyway (ex: Vista and Windows 8).

        First commenter: Microsoft is worried about the threat Linux poses to Windows.

        Second commenter: No they aren’t, look at usage stats.

        You: Guys, I’ll have you know that a lot of people liking something doesn’t necessarily mean it is better.

            Again, nobody can force you to stay on topic, but responses comprised of random, tangentially related shit will never be particularly compelling.
