No comparison. You are talking about an OS that would run in 8 Megs of
RAM. Go back to RedHat 5.2 if you want to compare. Of course, then you
won't have a gui office except for maybe the original star office, but
then again, that's from the same era.

I'll be the first to tell you that sometimes, there is just no need for
Linux. A wise implementer will be able to judge when he's doing
something good or stepping on his pecker.
