It is very good to have competition between companies. The problem occures when their are to many products and not are all supported. Intel and AMD keep each other on their toes so we get lowered prices, and faster chips. But the thing with them is that they can be used anywhere, they are both are supportes just as much as each other.

What M$ has done is killed the competitor. Not that its a bad thing, its what business try to do, but as a result, M$ can make ****ty products and charge anything they want, and we are almost forced into buying it.

What I would like to see in the future is more OSs but ones the can be compatible with each other, so if you have Bindows and I have Pinux it doesnt matter they both will work togethor.
