Yeah, now there's all these Unix newbies (speqking!) with superiority complexes (joking--sort of) amongst many a furrowed-browed old-schooler. ;-)
Seriously... Having done a bit of due diligence on the history of Unix before starting my journey into Terminal-existence has expanded my computing horizons more than I could ever have guessed. I've even turned an old PC into a Linux box and attempted (to no avail) to put NetBSD on an old PPC 9600 (may save that project for when I'm old and in the way). While I have always been primarily a Mac user, I have always held an affinity for the Windows PC just because there was always access to the command prompt--And having access to an underlying OS via a CLI seemed to, in my mind at the time, to constitute the WinPC as a 'real' computer. (Please keep in mind that it was not until recently that I came to understand what Unix, Linux and open-source projects are all about--Mighty powerful-good stuff--So I don't want y'all to think I equate DOS with Unix--it does pale in comparison, me thinks.) OK, well... Enuf tooting my own horn--let me get back to nursing this hangover, being bored at my own, self-made business, today, so I can try to comprehend why no one has air-dropped MREs and H20 to the folks suffering stranded on the Gulf Coast--what a catastrophe :-( John G. on 9/1/05 6:11 AM, Michael Spencer at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I gotta say that hearing all these Mac people whining about not > having terminal access is just a little weird... > > [It's humor, folks...]. > > Michael > _______________________________________________ > Littlesnitch-talk mailing list > [email protected] > http://at.obdev.at/mailman/listinfo/littlesnitch-talk _______________________________________________ Littlesnitch-talk mailing list [email protected] http://at.obdev.at/mailman/listinfo/littlesnitch-talk
