Suse is the desktop of choice, worldwide.

They are one in the same.  Suse sells support, not software.

I paid $89 for 9.0 and just ordered the upgrade for $59.  Linux comes 
preinstalled from Walmart.com, the worlds largest retailer.

Administrators support servers.  Not users.

When you get excited, does your English decay ?

Real developers don't need a namby pamby MSDN.

That sentence alone qualifies you for an award of putting the most 
disinformation in a single sentence.  I cannot answer it so much as to 
ignore it completely.

Thank, God.  I'm really tired. Wake me in 2006.

That will never happen.  At that point the principle reason for m$ 
existance ( keeping the stock price high, so Gate$ can sell his shares ) 
would drop to nothing.   Also, any customer who had his arm twisted to 
get him to pay high costs and implement buggy w2003 servers, would have 
a right to sue it to the ground.

Basically the owner of M$ is letting it die of natural causes.

The Power PC chip is made by IBM.  Apple can't write an OS ( it borrowed 
BSD ) it can't create a chip ( IBM ), it can't run a music service ( 
publishers forced them to raise prices ) and the one shining light is 
I-POD, an overblown, heavy and obsolete-at-birth MP3 player, sold mainly 
to artsy people with too much money.
