As usual, Ron, you prove terminally incapable of even understanding the 
English language.  The point, which is obvious to anyone but you, is that 
bad people exist in every field and profession, not *just* in the Windows 
admin field.  All the bitching at MS in the world won't change that fact. 
And converting them all to Unix would be worse.  If they can't understand 
Windows, what in the hell makes you think they would make good *nix 
admins???

And not that it's any of your business, but none of UTD's critical systems 
run on Windows - at least not the ones that IT folks maintain.  And our 
Exec CIO has already proposed converting the entire campus to Linux from 
Windows (which might even have a chance now, after the blaster mess).

You remain just as clueless and obtuse as ever.
