- The computer business is totally fucked up. I read that UNIX/Linux are

- I have used NT, and I say that it really *SUCKS*
- I use Novell and I like it, but it could be a lot better.

- But, Linux beats all of them in my opinion. It is a flexible and freely
- distributed NOS that is a fully 32-bit, multi-tasking, multi-threading
- operating system. If I want a GUI, I have XFree86, if I want a totally
- command-line interface, I have csh or tcsh.

- I know someone that runs NT *Server* on a stand-alone 486/80 with 20 meg of RAM.
- He does not even have access to the Internet. He thinks it is the best OS on
- Earth and likes to shove it up peoples asses and act like he is a computer
- god because he runs it. This is probably the reason why I hate it so much,
- but when I use it, I see or notice nothing big about it, considering how
- much it costs. When I use Linux, if something about it bugs me, I just re-write
- it and it doesn't bug me anymore. As far as I know, you can't do that with NT
- or Novell.
-
-
- Well, that was my opinion on NT and its alternatives. If you don't like it,
- too bad, opinions are made to be liked and disliked...
