When I hear people speaking bad about Windows programmers, I remember the '70s when we used to say that Hollywood movies where stupid films, compared to European or Asian.

It may be true that all as a whole is like this, but one should never generalize on it.

Several American film directors, do real masterpieces. And their only existence should erase any generalization out.

What I recognize is that most good programmers learn the basics from other operating systems.And it has nothing to do with a commercial idea. It happens because no one is able to leave happy to all types of users, and windows handles very well the comsuming audience. And when people wants something else more than a product they have to search in other operating systems.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
