Hi all,
I feel for this poor chap.
Why hassle the guy because he is looking for OpenSource on Windows?
Especially you Linux lads. Think of it this way...
If there was more OPenSource software for Win32 then that might force the software houses to embrace it more.
Linux is my OS of choice, but I still use a WIN32 box and miss free/opensource solutions to my software requirements. POrt them to Windows and who knows Windows software might come down in price to compete?
Think Open Office versus MS Office. How much pressure is Open office excerting on MS to make MS Office better and cheaper?
Anyway, rant over!
