Isn't it strange, here I am on a "Windows" customization site, reading about operating systems while running Linux FC2! Its all about usability. The variety of programs make Windows the leader. The other alternatives are either more expensive or take more configuring, and the payoff being they are not prime targets for exploiting or viruses. And just as auto makers watch the reaction of potential customers at car shows, the computer industry watches

My nick is a name my family used when I was a kid, I just spelled it backwards which is a long story by its self. My avatar is that elusive item in computer instructions "Press Anykey to continue" just a sick sense of humor I guess.

It is good that we have Moderators who make sure that articles written here are of an appropriate nature. I'm glad to see that postings that are abusive or are agains WinCustomize policy are removed. The next step needed is to find away to remove the "Headline" that points to a non-existant article. Even more importantly when the headline itself is grossly inappropriate!
