On my next system, I think I'll run some sort of Linux.

    No it's not. Application development is overwhelmingly done on the Windows platform.

    And stop lumping in Linux with REAL Unix please.

      Q^3 said "better," which refers to quality, not quantity.

      After Linux came out with a 64-bit version for Opteron before MS could for Windows, I thought it had reached another nice turning point.

              what, i thought that you, as a windows supported, would love the SCOFUD?

              the fact remains, though, that a good deal of programs that run on unix/bsd can also run on linux. both are compliant with posix-standards. i'm lumping them together in this case simply because even though linux is not so much a derivative as an imitator, it imitates well enough that it's become a viable market force... UnixWare has not.

                  heard of it. bell labs is great, just like xerox parc.

                  haven't used it, though.
