The PC can be a powerful machine for video presentation if the
right tools are available -- and Microslop Winblows does not
qualify.

Check out this vid of a very important subject (use a downloader):

Behold the junk!  Where is the full-screen video?  With this
garbage Microslop software it's not possible due to the MDI,
or Multiple Document Interface, constraint, which seems to be
the default on most Microslop desktop applications.  The author
is thus forced to include the informationally useless control
panels which consume about half of the screen -- and he cannot
even hide the task bar!

Look at how choppy the "walk through" of the 3D model turns
out.  Again, Microslop junk in action.

Also, the lack of virtual desktops means that he has to visibly
switch between applications which can be most annoying to the
viewer.  With a VD, other applications can remain open for a
more seamless presentation.

This guy is supposedly a pro but the inferior Microslop software
and OS has him hamstrung.

With GNU/Linux a much better presentation could be effected.
There area abundant VDs available with effortless switching.
There are no MDIs, TYVM.  Precise areas of the screen can be
selected for capture.  Etc., etc.

Because of Microslop garbage, a potentially excellent presentation
has turned into junk.

This guy had better learn GNU/Linux and he'd better learn it
fast.
