People often make the mistake of comparing Linux to Windows. I know one is a serious operating system - multi-user, multi-tasking and the other is not. I still can not run multiple isolated sessions or login as different users concurrently.
There is a place for Windows and a place for Linux. I do not see one dislodging the other. In fact they co-exist very well thanks to the standards. Good job EFF and IETF and other standards bodies. Without you we would have had no choice. Linux is the greatest fruit anarchy has yielded. The organized anarchy is an amazing phenomenon of the last two decades. McKown, John wrote:
"Linux is Not Windows" Granted, more oriented towards the desktop crowd, but hopefully on-topic enough. If not, I apologize. The only thing that I see wrong with it is that the author does not get "libre" != "gratis". He states that FOSS is free. He states that there is no monetary benefit to the developer with FOSS as there is with proprietary software. I don't think this is entirely true. But I guess it is more so than with proprietary (even shareware). http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
