You were supposed to find the compiler and linker without

Oh really

Corel already ported it to Linux? ;)

Besides I don't use alpha software.
What M$ calls beta, is alpha quality 
What M$ calls production code, is beta quality.

What is ironic about this thread, is the DNS servers that M$ now relies
to operate it's websites, are only *beta level* Linux kernels from the
2.1 series.

No..that's agnosticism.

A theism *IS* a belief....specifically a belief in the null postulate.

***TEST***
Write one very simple program in C which computes all prime
numbers between 1 and 100,000,000.  Don't do anything but
compute your prime numbers and display them to the screen.
Drive IO tends to scew this test.

Next, create a dos batch to launch this program 4 times,
each displaying the results in a dos box.

If you have a true multitasking OS, you should see program
1 finish before 2 and so on.  It should start and end
in the sequence 1,2,3,4....  

Windows can't do that.  

Linux can.  Linux is true multitasking.


This IS a crucial reason why when the going get's
tuff, Windows just bluescreens.

It has no sense of timing of it's internal processes.

By that definition EVERYBODY is a monopolist, as you retain the copyright
for whatever you create.

H: "Having found not one single carbon monoxide leak on the entire
    premises, it is my belief, and Willard concurs, that the reason
    you folks feel listless and disoriented is simply because
    you are lazy, stupid people"

I: Loren Petrich's 2-week stubborn refusal to respond to the
   challenge to describe even one philosophical difference
   between himself and the communists demonstrates that, in fact,
   Loren Petrich is a COMMUNIST ***hole

J: Other knee_jerk reactionaries: billh, david casey, redc1c4,
   The retarded sisters: Raunchy (rauni) and Anencephielle (Enielle),
   also known as old hags who've hit the wall....

A:  The wise man is mocked by fools.

B: Jet Silverman plays the fool and spews out nonsense as a
   method of sidetracking discussions which are headed in a
   direction that she doesn't like.
 
C: Jet Silverman claims to have killfiled me.

D: Jet Silverman now follows me from newgroup to newsgroup
   ...despite (C) above.

E: Jet is not worthy of the time to compose a response until
   her behavior improves.

F: Unit_4's "Kook hunt" reminds me of "Jimmy Baker's" harangues against
   adultery while concurrently committing adultery with Tammy Hahn.

G:  Knackos...you're a retard.
