Clug-tech is a good idea.

I do not happen to agree with this distinction, but then networking and
therefore interoperability between many different OSs (I interact with
at least 4 OSs on a near daily basis) is central to my computing
paradigm.  I will comply with this distinction as best I can, though for
the record I think it is a bad idea.
