It's only a Beta version... expect M$ to tighten things up in the next version.

I'll rather use Winders for games, and Linux for mission-critical stuff.

LOL

reminds me of the story about this dude Mike that ran a Deli - he would say No to everything, someone could come in and say they have come to repair the fridges... he would say no... then they would say, but you told me to come today, we booked it, then he would say OK... Did it all the time, would pop in and say that I have come to work on a terminal.... NO - But you just phoned me.... ohhhh OK

Which is much like Linux and Windows - Linux says no to everything and you have to tell it why, Windows tends to be a bit of a open house
