Wrong. Completely wrong. Take "openplotter" for example. Not available for
windows. Not for OSX.
Take MuseScore. Also available for windows and OSX. *But* input via MIDI-
keyboard is not available for windows. Take "TYPO3". Available for windows,
but does not (and can not for technical reasons) provide the same
functionality.

There is tons of linux software which is either not available for windows or
has less functionality

Even if he wasn't wrong, it was a stupid "point" for him to try to
make.

What does a Honda Accord do that BMW 328 does not? Does that mean
that the choice isn't needed, that everyone could get-by just fine
with only one of the two?

What did you expect? He is a wintendo luser. He does not know any better.
And most of them never will, because they fear the unknown. Instead they
prefer to stay on a third rate OS they (wrongly) think they can handle
because in the past it did not change that much.

ROTFLMAO.

You really are a terrible parser of nuance and intensions. You can't
even understand explicit statements in support of Linux, of which I've
made many.


Peter the Klöwn thinks that not liking transsexuals or homosexuals
makes you a racist. So yeah, he isn't the brightest bulb in the box.

Your assholery doesn't interest me, much.

My point was indisputably correct. Choices are needed because people
have widely varying needs, tastes, skills, and budgets. Losers who
demand that others justify their choices, so that they can bicker
about each point, I can live without.

You have my permission to foam at the mouth and claim that my behavior
"proves your point". I'm the "bad guy", here, while the insulting
asshole (who lied about being first insulted) is the "good guy", here,
right?
