If you aren't smart enough to use Windows 10 as it evolves, stick with your POS Mac or Linux box

BTW, AFAIK, there isn't a single Linux software package that does something no Win/Mac package will do. If there is one, I'd like to know of it. Wrong. Completely wrong. Take "openplotter" for example. Not available for windows. Not for OSX. Take MuseScore. Also available for windows and OSX. *But* input via MIDI- keyboard is not available for windows. Take "TYPO3". Available for windows, but does not (and can not for technical reasons) provide the same functionality. There is tons of linux software which is either not available for windows or has less functionality |

Does that mean that the choice isn't needed, that everyone could get-by just fine with only one of the two? -- 'we are talking about installing & maintaining thousands of seats company wide.

He is a wintendo luser. He does not know any better. And most of them never will, because they fear the unknown. Instead they prefer to stay on a third rate OS they (wrongly) think they can handle because in the past it did not change that much. |
