RE: tlug: X Windows client



Ok everyone... I am getting sick of this topic...

I think we can all see the shortcomings of both forms of OSes...

I tend to try to keep an open mind of everything, so I try to find the
benefits and demerits of everything I play with.

For Linux/UN*X, these are great for networking, multiprocessing, and
hardcore computing...

For PCs, these are great machines for what I consider general computing (ie
Casual Web Browsing, games, OA, etc.)

I think depending on who you work with, who you associate with, etc. should
determine what format of OS, what format of WP, etc. that u use...

I work in a business environment, and therefore, most of my customers work
with desktop apps such as M$ Office, Visio, etc.  Some people may choose to
go another way such as Lotus or whatever...

Everything has its good side and bad side... I have yet to meet anyone in my
business who uses TeX or straight ASCII as a means of word processing...
maybe in another arena though, it is considered the norm...

I guess what I am trying to say is that everyone has their own needs and
requirements... I am sorry for trying to put forth mine as the dominant
one... I have realized that I was quite inconsiderate for doing so...

For me, I am obviously stuck in an M$ world with some wanderings in the
Linux world... Since I was 8 years old, I have been constantly using M$
products... I have been greatly influenced with M$, and I can greatly
influence using M$... others can do it with UN*X, others with MAC, etc.

Anyways... to prevent any unnecessary OS wars, I just wanted to put out my
general opinion and an apology for my inconsiderate behavior on this list...

Mikio
