Yes, it's off-topic. Search the archives--I've given my opinion on  
this many times and I'm not alone in that view (but there are large  
numbers opposed to it). Read the Unix Haters Handbook for a better  
discussion of things wrong with Unix than I could provide.

No. Insufficient demand. It would take months of my time and the  
financial return would be pathetic.
