Yup, I'm a member, and I'm sure I've exchanged emails with Peter before regarding previous incarnations of his Linux v Windows piece, and I know at least one other person has. His attitude to the speed with which he bins any OS that can't talk to his Windows network out of the box is nice given Microsoft's attitude to making the information available to do that! I've decided that I will no longer talk to anyone who doesn't speak fluent Pluggerish, a language of my own devising for which I will not be publishing any dictionaries of phrase books. Sadly my range of Pluggerish brain implants, apart from being purely fictional, aren't as ubiquitous as Windows, so I can't get away with that ;) For somebody with the IT experience he claims, he sure fails to demonstrate it. I guess specialising in a narrow area of Windows (or any narrow area for that matter) leaves you at a loss when outside your own field of expertise - much like asking a GP to do brain surgery or visa versa. -- Paul Tansom | Aptanet Ltd. | http://www.aptanet.com/ ==================================================================== Aptanet Ltd. | Registered in England | Company No: 4905028 Registered Office: Crawford House, Hambledon Road, Denmead, Waterlooville, Hants., PO7 6NU -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
