What makes you angry? Get it off your chest so we can laugh at your impotent rage.

Oh dear!
Snobs. "Oh you use Windows and M$ Office, do you? I only use a freeware OS, coded by communist rainforest dwellers and FrewareOffice, which is made of recycled cocnuts. They're much more powerful!" And don't even get me started on music snobs.
I'd like to raise my hand and say i *am* one of those people (the computery kind).
I use OpenOffice and Ubuntu Linux on my desktop. I also use Apache / TomCat / PHP / MySQL for my server applications, all of which are free to use. I don't use them because i'm a snob or an elitist, i use them becuase they're much better than the bloated over-priced 'products' from Microsoft.
I find Linux makes my job much easier. Microsoft has it's advantages, agreed, but please do not label free software users as snobs.
