I use OpenBSD when I use unix. The BSDs are all good.
or not, most folks are using Microsoft products and I have to stay
up on what's going on with them and be familiar with them so I can
service their systems. I took a copy of Puppy Linux with me today when
I went to the young lady's home to fix her computer, I often use a live
Linux CD to test a system to make sure the hardware is OK before diving
into the addled software installed on the hard drive. ^_^
If ppl want to stick with Windows or Apple, fine by me. I'm no linux
evangelist. I jes think it the height of absurdity to use a computer
platform where a commercial entity, be it M$ or Apple, exerts more
control over the computer and its use than the owner. Even more
astonishing is ppl actually paying a corporation for the privilege of
being dictated to. "Here's my $$$. Now, tell me what I can or can't
do"
Un-freakin-believable!!

Gunner uses Xandros but it's payware Linux and I suppose that's OK if
you want a software distribution where someone else has already pulled
all their hair out while making it all work. Darn it, Linux will wind
up in the hands of the dumb masses. o_O

Actually..I use 4.6 Xandros..which was free.

One could not be a successful Leftwinger without realizing that,
in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers
and mothers of Leftwingers, a goodly number of Leftwingers are
not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.

Well heck, my mistake, I just looked it up and found it was payware and
didn't look for a free distribution. o_O
