Ed,

Once again you play both sides of a smackdown. You call out Al for his alleged 
Linux bigotry (or as
I see it, maybe his preference for Windows) and then you play on my preference 
for Vista in a Vista
like vs. dislike discussion. Shame on you, but I am accustom to your "fun", 
just like you answer
serious VFP questions with useless "how it is done with Dabo answers".

If you want a list of things people don't like about Linux, just ask. I have 
two primary ones as you
well know:

1) Does not natively run the most basic apps I use every single day. (and no, I 
am not letting my
life be run in a virtual machine where life is sloooow). This is known as a 
solid, unemotional
business decision.

2) Incompatibility possibilities based on too many different distros running 
potential vertical
market applications. This is a technical problem that I need to solve. Not 
impossible, just
overwhelming when I have so much work to do these days. And yes, almost the 
same as the different
flavors of Windows, but I for the most part have that problem under control. No 
need to go on about
choice is good/bad, just a fact of life.

And before you call my preferences anti-Linux or bigotry, forget about it. I am 
neither, I just
prefer to keep making money on a solid platform that is firmly entrenched in my 
customers'
businesses. I have Linux in my life, I just choose a working business model 
that is proven for my
business.

Thanks for the humor this morning.
