"Here's another example. One day, you come home from work and just want to relax and watch a DVD movie. Once again, Microsoft is miles ahead in creating an incomplete operating system. Windows XP has the capability to play a DVD, but not out of the box. Playing a DVD requires you to spend at least $30 on a commercial DVD encoder first."
Since when is DVD software part of the operating system. Linux has people spoiled! :)
Poor Microsoft probably finds itself in a hard place when the Antitrust people keep running after them when they try to include stuff in the OS, while Linux keeps adding world class applications to its list.
