As long as Torvalds is alive, and the source code is available, the Linux kernel project will always exist. I've said it in the past and I'll say it again. The problem with Microsoft isn't their developers. It's the board of directors, executives, and legal team that are the problem.

Yeah. I agree.

There are lawyers, and there are lawyers. The existence of good apple lawyers does not negate the overflowing number of bad apple lawyers.

A friend of mine once said, "At the end of the world, lawyers will be the last ones left and they will be arguing over the last chunk of Earth until it and they are gone."

Yeahbut, the blue screens of death, endless software bugs, and excessively ponderous installation routines are hardly the fault of the lawyers.

The carcass may stink from the head down, but it still reeks.

The blue screens of death in the past have been an issue, yes. However, this may enlighten you as to why these bugs have occurred in the past:
