  You misunderstand the point I was trying to make.  That's my fault; I did
a bad job making it.  I wasn't trying to say you didn't have a clue.  I was
trying to say your apparent attitude about Microsoft products might make it
appear that way.  I've encountered plenty of "Linux zealots" who blindly
preach that FOSS is in all ways superior, just because it isn't Microsoft.  
That attitude tends to aggravate those who work with this stuff for a
living.  Which is, of course, likely to aggravate the already poor situation
at your employer.
