This was a fun rant to read. He makes some valid points. But even with all of GNU/Linux's shortcomings it still kicks Windows's ass.
A cartoon from the piece...
Linux is not UNIX — it's more and more like Windows Millennium Edition with Compiz added
The guy in the suspenders is supposed to be Jon "maddog" Hall, right?

Let's see if some time from now he's man enough to realize and admit he made the biggest mistake of his life.

Well, Windows is for dumb people, let him go back. Linux works great for me and I couldn't see myself going back to Windows on my desktop or laptop. Using this Windows XP machine at work is sometimes painful, have to reboot it daily, has strange quirks, lacks a lot of nice touches I have with Linux. Besides, even if Linux had some issues, I'd still use it over Windows because it's free and open. Some people just don't get the bigger picture with due appreciation.
