Subj : KNOPPIX 3.9 last CD To : MAURICE KINAL From : CHARLES ANGELICH Date : Mon Jul 25 2005 12:17 am 123c6c4b9a27 tech Hello Maurice - CA>> The 'intelligence' of LINUX users is highly over-rated CA>> IMO. I find that those who use BSD or some flavor of UNIX CA>> are the intelligent *nix users. MK> I've used all sorts of flavours of Unix, including BSD MK> ones. As far as PC's go Linux is just fine and has more MK> going for it then ALL the other unices. That was easier to agree with prior to all the bloat. MK> If there is a problem with Linux it is due to certain MK> distributions catering to the stupidity MS has created with MK> their idiotic software. Sheepleware is all that crap is and MK> any Linux distribution catering to it will suffer as well. Some of the 'idiotic' Windows software was created/marketed by third party software companies. Microsoft was just their target OS. MK> Slackware is the best bar none. My only two LINUX installs are mini-installs of Slackware and I have no complaints about those. :-) MK> However ttylinux is pretty good too. :-) I vaguely recall Pascal discussing ttylinux but very very vaguely. I did take a look at ttylinux some time back and it seemed to be more for developers than for users (general) such as I might be. > > , , > o/ Charles.Angelich \o , > <| |> __o/ > / > USA, MI < \ __\__ --- * ATP/16bit 2.31 * ....
