This is true but being in a minority can be advantageous, I feel that
I know how to use much more powerful tools than my colleagues and
this gives me a powerful edge in getting things done faster.
I often look amazed at how inefficiently some people try to do things
in packages like IRAF (which only those in astro will understand the
reference).
That said I WOULD like to see wider adoption rather than feel like
some archmage. A linux binary distro would help a lot. We could model
the default installation set on my Mac one.
Any volunteers?
