Hey, I hate a lot of things about the Windows products too. But, hey, lets face
it... they are easy to work with and software is abundant. I prefer win3.1x
over win95, and I use NT exclusively.

I have used linux on numerous occassions (never in a production environment),
and I find it to be an amazing OS. However, it leaves quite a bit to be desired
in the area of maintenance and supportability. It's a neat toy, on my local LAN
at the home office,but I really can't see much use for it for what **I** am
doing. Results may vary.
And yes, that was the difference I am referring to. Nathan cannot for the life
of him understand that different people have different needs, and that he
cannot continue to dictate what people should do and say and expect people to
take him seriously.
