Lukas, I'll give you that, but I also think that Windows is going the wrong way. Something simple like browsing a directory full of graphs of data from various experimental runs has become easier (and faster) on Linux than it is on Windows. If Apple could/would run their OS on things like PC/104 hardware, I might have jumped to them years ago. As it is, Linux has been getting better, Windows (IMHO) has been getting steadily more bloated, annoying and buggy, and my long-standing policy of never increasing my dependence on MS has gradually made it feasible for me to move to Linux in a big way. Pharo is no small part of it.

People won't buy an 'approved' C++ crap, if they will have a choice to use something which is way better. And they are really don't care, what language is used to implement software.
You'll have to admit that open source software with a truly excellent user experience still hasn't happened yet.
