  I mention this kind of thing on a Linux list because most peoples'
  perceptions of what a computer IS are so heavily influence by
  Microsoft software, so it impacts us all -- and MS has become an
  anchor, dragging all computer users to the briny depths of Trojans,
  spyware, and wasted computer power...
  
  "Case in point: Microsoft Office 2007 which, when deployed on Windows
  Vista, consumes over 12x as much memory and nearly 3x as much
  processing power as the version that graced PCs just 7 short years ago
  (Office 2000)."
