I was just switching from Windows to Ubuntu and I started to read this.

And there were quite a few things I did not understand one was :

"OpenOffice decided not to have a learning curve"

And

"Firefox tries very hard to make sure pages written in 1995 look like they did in 1995. "

And Finally

"Windows isn't a poor man's Linux."

In the final statement shouldn't the statement be the opposite.
