Agreed.

In general I'm not sure how you could think the battle-worn/old-tech/modular visual style of the Terran race applies more to Windows than Unix.

Whereas terrifyingly-impressive testament to the brutal domination of an evolutionary niche and subsequent uncontrolled (uncontrollable?) growth seems like such a more-natural analogue for Windows.

And that's without even touching the gross, slimy, infested allusions. ;)

What sold me on unix being zerg was the concept of the swarm. Open source == powered by the hive mind.

Also I think it is safe to say that most everyday folk relate more to windows; same way most would relate more towards the human faction.

That said, you have good points!

Well, yeah. I'm sure the average person with 4 windows boxes at home wouldn't be wild about the idea of the creep seeping between the boxes...

Whereas unix folks are more likely to be nerdier and like that sort of thing ;)

Oh, and awesome scheme overall.

Another attractive reason for Windows being Zerg is it would make Ballmer Queen Bitch of the Universe (Gates would be the now-dead Overmind).

Buy box from Dell w/ Windows pre-installed: Marine.

Install Ubuntu partition: Infested Marine.

Works for me.

Just remember that Infested Marines are (stat-wise) more powerful ;)
