Actuall I am a LINUX dipschit who has to work for a living

On Wednesday 05 July 2006 04:41, Yugo stood up and spoke the following words to the mbuttes incomp.os.linux.misc...:

While you may have said the above in humor, I believe this would actually stand.

Moreover, from one of the last links I got to see while I was still subscribed tocomp.os.linux.advocacyregarding Microsoft's latest developments, Microsoft is developing a brandnew operating system that will be quite different from Vista, which is only an improved version of the current NT-based Windows operating system generation.

Allegedly, Microsoft has been working on a new operating system of a "totally different" design which was "not intended for commercial use", by which they meant it was for research purposes only, just like their GNU-Linux lab. However, the codename for this "internal research operating system" wasSingularity.

Now, as has leaked out to the press not so long ago, Microsoft is indeed working on a brandnew commercial operating system, which they have codenamedDarkStar- a dark star is otherwise known as a singularity or black hole...

One of the things Microsoft have in the meantime announced regarding this "new revolutionary must-have operating system" will feature a far more powerful and elaborate commandline - one of the arguments of the Windows advocates for this new operating system.

And so we've come to the point... While the Windows trolls and the newbies are the first to complain about GNU-Linux being a mainly commandline-driven operating system - especially if they can't get things done using the GUI tools - they obviously cheer Microsoft's decision to give their next operating system more of a commandline aspect.

In other words: the alleged "steep learning curve" of GNU-Linux - and more particularly of the UNIX commandline - appears not to be so steep at all if the software comes from Microsoft. Speaking of double standards... ;-)

Perhaps it is the ability to open up one's mind that is actually what's
