Hi folks! I kept the following in my out box for 4+ hours before sending. I really don't want to get into a flaming contest, but I'm one of what I suspect are many who get awfully tired of the entirely gratuitous continuing slaps at Windows and Windows users. They really don't contribute anything to the discourse. Now, having spent my little bit of bandwidth, I'll drop back into the background.
Cheers and Happy Holidays! Here, Here! Here's my New Year's suggestion (not resolution). How about if all of those folks who /really/ don't like Windows get together and form another news group / list where they can chant things like "windose" and M$, and the like all day long - thereby leaving the rest of us (the great unwashed?) to get on with our lives? Like it or not, Windows is a fact of life, makes life lots easier for a lot of people, and mostly works as advertised. The continuing drumbeat of hate for Windows suggests to me that there may be certain poverty in the lives of those who profess to hate it. If it's so bad, why don't you develop / promote a competitor and win in the marketplace? At 11:43 AM 1/2/2002 +0200, you wrote: >Wow, do you program with the those filthy fingers.
