  1. Re:I am scared.. on Electronic Medical Records Software for Unix? · · Score: 1

    Don't overreact. If I convert human, you may be scared, but in IT language it is the right term.

  2. Neaty Tools on More On The Linux Wrist Watch · · Score: 1

    Isn't it interesting, how everyone starts to play with Linux nowadays. I never saw such Windows products or experiments. Linux is not just an OpSys it may be magic. *g*

    BTW, I am still waiting for my Linux powered roller pen.

  3. Re:I understand MS's position on Microsoft Plays Linux Games at Work · · Score: 1

    Yes! Say it often, say it loud! That was one of the best statements I ever read, especially 'cause you kept away emotions.
    I prefer Linux over Windows. I do, because I decided some time ago, I do not want to reboot my system every time an IDE (Visual Basic, Visual J++) crashes. It took me very long, to get satisfied with a distribution (RedHat 6.0). Although it is not perfect, it works, and I now what to do, if something goes wrong.
    I should also confess, that I hated Win3.1 And 3.11. The first windows (I use PC's for over 7 years now) I really used was Win95. And now, every time some of my friends came across me, asking which system they should use, I say Win98. Not 'cause I do not want to help them, using Linux, but you can install it and start to work. You can download things, and they will run! No compiling, no lib searching (wanna try? On a fresh installed RedHat system, where is libqimgio.so?), no env settings, no .bashrc, .bash_profile, /etc/bashrc /etc/profile chaos. BUT, if they wanna work on a running system (with work I mean compiling and programming, even Web programming) I will recommend Linux.
