Relating to a article posted on /. http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=0...tid=187&tid=98

Could you inmagine paying $5-$10/month just to use Windows, I can already Imagine

| O O |    Your Windows subscription has expired, your PC will shutdown

That would be scary, excuse the crappy ASCII art, it isn't preserving the formatting very well, but you get the point.

I can imagine... I can imagine more and more people switching to other OSs.

I have no desire to turn LinuxForums.org into another Slashdot, and I don't think I'm alone. There is no constructive direction a thread like this can take, and I and others are very tired of the constant Microsoft-bashing threads that pop up like mushrooms at least once a day. This shroom has been plucked.
