The only thing that has any value is the "different and not better" and that involves a subjective "better" which doesn't apply uniformly across people. Ultimately useful measures can be based on time and money, for example productivity, deploy speed, licensing expenses, etc. I thought my meaning was clear. Maybe it's not to you, but it sounds like you did understand it, and just don't agree with how I presented it. And that's fine. > Personally I hate the click and point everything UI in windows and prefer a sane bash like terminal with familiar unix tools, but that's entirely subjective. I went from Windows to Linux for the WMs, and stayed for the CLI. Then I went to Mac OS X and stayed for the trackpad. Then I went to emacs and stayed for the keyboard. Now I'm using Windows 8 and am considering staying for the beauty. Honestly, I don't put much stock even in my own subjective opinions anymore, since they change by the month.
