Now IF that philosophy can also give me everything I need so much the better

It can. That's the whole point of Open Source, that everyone can collaborate to make software better (that's without the whole Stallmanist Free Software, Free Society advocacy). That's why I said that all software sucks--because it does. One of the best ways to make it better is to open it up so that more people can help to make it suck less. See "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" (yes, ESR is an asshole, but he does make some interesting points).

It has limitations, but it has a lot of advantages Windows doesn't have. If you can't see that, well... I don't know what you're doing analyzing it as an alternative anyways.
