Quothe Matthew Sell, from writings of Mon, Jan 28, 2002 at 10:11:43PM -0600:
The only problem is, we're using an operating
system made for a single user
and a modest number of processes, and we've allowed Mickeysoft to turn it
into a pseudo multi-user "enterprise" server platform.
Hey, all of M$ is annoying, but at least Micro$oft gives us a few
laughs in a perverse sort of way...
I've been using W2K for a little while now for my
development platform, and
Why? When did you first become aware of having a masochistic tendency
to crave being abused by sadistic computer software? If only someone
had found those copies of PC-World magazines hidden under your
mattress in time to help you... ;-)
it still sucks compared to WinNT 4. It's sad that
as the computing
Which, like all of the other OS wannabees from M$, sucks when compared
to UNIX, VMS, AOS/VS, MVS, MPE-IV, Accent, POS, and even CP/M. M$-DOS
may have it's limited uses when it's windowing interface isn't
attached; however, thinking of that as a useful OS is hypothetically
able to induce usefulOSophobia in some people predisposed to various
disorders preventing them from differentiating useful operating
systems from computer viruses pretending to be useful operating
systems.
community, we've allowed Mickeysoft to peddle this
desktop "operating
system" as a server platform.
Please don't included me in that "we've," since I don't use those
viruses from Micro$oft.
These are just my opinions, YMMV. For the small market
I deal with, and the
situations that my software is called upon, MS is an absolutely stupid
choice for a server.
Isn't M$ an insipid choice for anything, except for inspiring dark
humor? :-)
