And I thought we were professionals.
I'm sure I've said before, I'm no Microsoft fan, but I'm much more against
this kind of unqualified vilification. All I can read from this post is that
the poster has read of a lot of anti-Microsoft text and doesn't have the
time, inclination or ability to sort out fact from fiction. And that's being
kind. NT _by design_ is quite cool. Some of the implementation
is...um...still evolving. And I don't know what gives anyone that idea that
NT or MS stuff in general is the only OS family that is subject to virii.
There was one important point though - the NT discussion is getting _really_
boring. 8) There were a lot of good points that came out early, but I think
we're getting a little religious, yah?

Subject: Re: why not NT
The discussion about using or not using NT is getting really boring.
The same happens with MS Windows NT: everybody knows that the OS is plagued
with horrible bugs, that there are several important misconceptions in the
design of the product, that is is really extremelly fragile to very very
simple
attacks and so forth.

Whith firewalls, the same happens: if you put your cards in a system that is
so
fragile that can be plaged by viruses... Well, it is none of my business
!!!!
