Secondly, I was in *NO WAY* bashing Linux. I am a HUGE fan of open source and have spent a large number of hours contributing to open source projects and trying to convince a "not invented here" company to accept more of it in their products. I was making a commentary on badly written *APPLICATIONS* that are very Linux-centric yet still trying to claim portability. That was the sum total of my gripe. > GNOME and KDE applications are running successfully on > Solaris, FreeBSD, and many other platforms. Sun is actively > working on a desktop based on these "Linux-centric" applications. GNOME and KDE are in *NO WAY* Linux-centric. In fact they are shining examples of how software CAN be portable and how to do it right. > You're just as bad as some of my friends, ignorantly bashing > Microsoft without any real knowledge. Take your ignorance elsewhere. If I felt you were in any way qualified to make any kind of judgement about my level of ignorance or not, I may take offence. But since you seem to be a reactionary with an axe to grind or an over-inflated sense of defensiveness (is that a word?) towards Linux I will take it from whence it comes. In future, I strongly recommend you read what is actually writen, make an attempt to discern that was intended if the meaning was ambiguous, and inquire as to that intent before running your mouth. This is not the place for this discussion so I shall not continue it here further. If you feel the need for a flame war please respond to me privately. Have a nice timezone.
