This is a common misconception. I think very few people are "jealous," as you put
it. Rather, I think many users simply resent Microsoft for having been so successful
marketing one mediocre product after another.
There are other companies that make better software, but because they don't abuse
their market position, their customers applaud them rather than booing them. This
is why Microsoft launched that Phillip-Morris-like PR campaign last year, promoting
their own wonderfulness. If Microsoft did away with the cartoons, the crashing,
and all the other nonsense, their customers would not appear so "jealous," as you
put it.
