  1. It would make more sense to improve C++ compilers, and mabye add static analysys to flag "unsafe" code than to learn a whole new language and to rewrite whole code bases.

  2. So is C.

  3. How exactly is MS telling you what to do any more than some Linux distro tells you what to do? I use Windows every day and MS doesn't tell me what to do. Im any cae, I don't want to Linux as a desktop. Ive tried that pile of junk more than once and it was an unstable piece of annoyance... that's when it actually installed (which it never did for me). I had to get a 3rd party to install it for me through work. Tried it for a few weeks and dumped it. Hated it. Then our IT dept switched us over to Linux to save money. I hated it. They switched us back after a few months as it was a failure. My son got Linux working on his laptop in Feb after two days of cursing. Meanwhile, I installed Windows 10 clean on an old box in 30 mins for my wife. It simply installed and worked, unlike the Linux crapshoot my son and II suffered. So the moral of the story is mileage differs. I think Linux sucks. You think Windows sucks. Windows is the industry standard for desktop. There's a reason for that.
