Re: As was discussed earlier...

I could fill this entire page with software that doesn't run on *nix platforms.

And 5 years from now, linux will not be the norm. It hasn't been and it never will be. 5 years ago people like you said the same thing and it didn't come true then and it won't come true now.

Entirely because of my first statement.

Supporting an operating system is one thing. Spreading FUD about it because of your undying blind support is another.

He didn't say that any program that can run on Windows can run on *nix. He said there are equivalent programs under different names.

What part of "dontshare"'s statements was FUD about Linux?

I agree and you are correct.

Don't get me wrong, *nix is a great OS. I have been running it since 1996, but all I really do with it is play around. I understand its advantages and limitations. I am also experienced enough to know they are not the same. I can't believe the FUD the previous user posted...on second thought....I would expect that from a *nix worshiper.
