asymmetric fud...

It has been 10 happy years since I have had a need for Windoze-X.

But I can still use the M$ HackaDay product, as if I never stopped using it.

This is the asymmetric FUD of any ProprietaryProduct that somehow its "specialness" lays in its hidden workings.

By moving to Linux you only lose the aggravation of Windoze not the functionality, as the workings are there to be seen by anyone (with the patience...).

I agree with the view that the Linux distribution and desktop diversity causes perhaps more noise that is good for such a complex environment, and for corporate use you need an enterprise version (Redhat,Suse,Ubuntu..).

But at no point in the process of using Linux do you lose the ability to use Windoze (I'll ignore MacOs as it is a *nix variant under the hood).

And remember kids, Linux is the only fully-functional piece of software you can install on your hardware without needing an internet connection to "phone home".

Carry on reviewing Linux as if it was found on a usb stick growing wild in a field of barley...
