Why? Did I said Linux was perfect? It's not. All complex software has glitches, but I can tell you (I'm a professional software developer) your typical Linux system has _very_few_ glitches for it's size. And when you take into account the complexity and pace of development it's just astonishing.

The fact is, Linux *is* improving in capabilities, usefulness, user-friendliness, quality, speed, broadness of applicability... and all at the same time! And the only reason is the love many of it's developers put in what they do. And this is not self-delusion, it's pure and verifiable facts.
