And Linux is indeed a threat to Microsoft. It won't happen today, or even in six months, but it will happen. Microsoft is going to be dethroned.

You better hope so. After all, you're betting your career on it. And if you're wrong...

And if I'm wrong, I'll have to move to another platform. Since I bounce between BSD, Linux, Solaris, AIX and MacOS already, a lateral move to a new, up-and-coming operating system won't be such a big deal for me. And I regularly check out new systems as they become available, so I'll probably have a passing aquaintance with whatever OS displaces Windows.

You, on the other hand, being tied to a legacy OS, are going to be in real trouble. I suggest you start studying the habits of the Amiga users. Windows experts will be about as relevant as they are.
