Where did you dredge up that?

UNIX isn't going anywhere. Performance matters and Windows will never hack it. Linux has now had at least 7 years to come up with a GUI environment supported by a sane, tight API. I like Linux but I'd kill for an OSX Mac. Linuxists blew it with stupid politically correct GPL horseshit that impeded development. Now it's too late for the desktop unless Novell has some mighty fine work waiting in the wings.

New You know nothing.
Novell has far surpassed what you can comprehend.

They have far greater plans than you can even begin to get an inkling about.

You don't have the inside angle at all.

You will be shocked when it happens.

No matter how much Microsoft supporters whine about how Linux and other operating systems have just as many bugs as their operating systems do, the bottom line is that the serious, gut-wrenching problems happen on Windows, not on Linux, not on Mac OS. -- [link|http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1622086,00.asp|source]
