It's not that easy for some of us.

I am a contract business doing medical billing. most of our claims are filed electronicly, via our dsl account. the federal government will only allow this on machines runing windows, using IE 4 or better (i know...double negative.)

so you see, we don't have the option to run *nix. in fact, HICA regulations are about to change so that one can only use win2k IE6 or better.

trust me, if we could, we would. in fact we run a linux web server on the same account, so it's not like i'm pro m$...
