You're being paranoid. I've been stomping on Microsoft products, when they deserve it, and praising non-Microsoft products, when they deserve it, for more than decade in the Ziff mags and other places.
Sometimes Microsoft does something right--sue me I haven't seen anything in the same time zone as PowerPoint in years and although I keep trying the alternatives I always find Excel winning me back. But, when it comes to operating system fundamentals, give me Linux or BSD/OS any day of the week.
Linux is getting solid praise in my book because it deserves it and that's all there is to it. Fair warning, if things start going wrong, we'll report that too.
The NT disk space number should be 1 Gigabyte and it will be Real Soon Now. And before anyone mentions that you can run it on less--or Linux either for that matter--they were all set up as network file/Web servers.
Oh please. Check out my track record--it's on the Web and in the magazine databases. I was running Unix and dissing Microsoft--when they deserve it which they usually do--for years. Check out, the Sm@rt Reseller masthead, see who's working with me in techno? A lady named Esther Schindler, better known to some of you as the OS/2 Goddess. S@R technology department calls 'em the way they see 'em. Always has, always will.
