Have to agree with Wayne. One of the reasons I love Linux so much is because it's so transparent.

This is where MS has totally dropped the ball - people don't buy an operating system for animations, pretty colors, features or dancing clowns - they buy an operating system because it allows my OTHER programs to run animations, pretty colors, features and dancing clowns. The OS shouldn't get in the way of allowing everything else to run correctly, which Windows (virtually any incarnation of it) is infamous for doing. Linux, by contrast just kind of sits there and does nothing - unless you want it to. MUCH better and more transparent, IMO.
