You hate windows because you have to manually shut down spyware???

Why not get rid of it, then you don't have too? Lots and Lots of spyware removing software out there...like saying you hate your house because you have to take the trash out manually everyday..

But Love the linux client, have not played much in it yet, but love to see support for more OSes.

Yep, I agree.
The only problem is, 10% of Windows users are smart enough to remove spyware, and 90% are too dumb even to know what an anti-spyware program is :-(

Once you make a system that anyone can use, anyone will... I mean.. ANYONE. eh :-)

But anyway, this is off-topic here.

I'd love to see a Linux client that matches the Windows client functionality. Sound, uploads, full-screen, (audio) streaming, hotkeys are still TO-DO. I wonder when.
