It doesn't have to be a flame war if you consider the benefits of both operating systems ... Either operating systems have their pros and cons ... I know there are benefits to either operating system, and both of them are full of their share of bugs ... Some are more publicized than others ... Such as a car accident in Alaska, or a plane crash in Philadelphia ... Microsoft is the plane crash ... A target cause they're on top whether you like it or not ... Just as there is a "Hackers Guide to Windows 2000", there is a "Hackers Guide to Linux" ... there's the copyright and copyleft issues ... still, full of pros and cons ... My point here is that all software contains bugs ... All systems can contract viruses if the operator isn't educated ... With all of these Code Red and Nimda happenings, I was unaffected because I kept my systems current ... The best thing about Linux/BSD is, it's FREE ... If there remains a "flame war" about "my operating system is better than yours" well then, that's counter-productive and will serve to help no one ... On the other hand, if you remain edumacated on what benefits there are to running either operating system, then you may find yourself in a win win situation ... That's the track I've chosen ... to receive the best of both worlds, I am running both operating systems on my network and there are plans to integrate the two of them using the Linux/BSD side and the Microsoft Interix and Services for Unix ... I received both FREE at the last Web Hoster Program seminar I attended ... Whereas you may feel Microsoft is some huge tyrant, I have found them nothing but helpful in my endeavors ... They gave me a FREE copy of Windows 2000 Advanced Server with 25 CALs, The W2K Resource Kit on CD, the above mentioned *nix software, and free seminars on how to run them ... If you go poking around the Microsoft Web Site, you will find hidden treasures ... But yes, the box on the shelf at the computer store is a very expensive one ... I bought NT4, I bought W2K Server UPGD, I bought MS Office Professional ... This is a lot of money spent ... Keep an open mind, a sense of humor, and you will reap the rewards ... >You stoopid insignificant little bug.... you think that M$ runs the >world, then go ahead with your cheezy half-assed software that seems to >mysteriously >contract bugs and attracts virii every growing minute. > >Die. > >ren > > >On Tue, 16 Oct 2001 14:11:26 -0500, Tony Mangialetto wrote: > >|Why does it always have to be "M$" Do you also refer to Bill Gates as >|"Money" too?
