Really, should I? Before you give me a download link or whatever, do you think Microsoft wouldn't release a free version so it can get BUG reports? Every company/coorporation does this nowadays (see wolfram alpha for instance).

Not only that, but I'm a pretty knowledgeable person when it comes to computers and my conclusion is that Microsoft sucks, both for the user, poweruser and programmer.

Microsofts products are polished turds. XP was as good as microsoft can get. It's 2009, stop being a sucker and get a better OS, there's many available.
