That's another nice stereotype, along with the "cryptic command
line interface". I am not a poweruser! I use linux (unless I want to
play games) because it is easier to handle, and it's mostly xemacs+TeX
and internet user stuff (e-mail, lynx,...), not the service things.
And I wouldn't think I am unique.
This all is probably possible in DOS/Win*, I just _cannot figure out_
how to make the thing work (and why should I bother? Esp. for my
own bucks/pesos).
Yep, Office... I run no office, thank you.

Some hammer. Make two hundred clicks to copy a file, then two
hundred more to find and open it to edit ("Hey, it's plain
text" - "But it has .*** extension, so I load this... not
found, go pay another $200"), the handle breaks every second hour, and
the nails you thought already done fall out when that happens...
Then, of course, there are powerusers who can make it work perfectly.
Best wishes,
Oleg
