    Well, actually, it does, for several technical achievements that I can
    only dream of when I work on modern GNU/Linux systems.

I think the ethical nature of a program is more important than its
technical advances; thus, while I might agree with your opinion of
those technical achievements (and I'd be interested if you told me
about them, off the list), I wouldn't grant respect to Windows or
Microsoft on account of them.
