weren't present and functional with no way of
figuring out
what the problem
was because of the doc-shortfalls, was too much work. It was
easier to do
with NT.
Honestly, the easiest O/S installs I've ever done on a system where
the O/S needed "installed" were IRIX and VMS.
Strange? Maybe, but as far as I'm concerned, those are each a
monument to good installation methods.
work on? I know lots of *nix guys like to type a
couple of
lines of cryptic
stuff before their computer allows access to a resource that would be
point-n-click accessible under Windows.
Maybe they're willing to type a couple lines for the sake of
the added reliability, maybe it's easier for them to type
it out than to grab the mouse... or maybe they're stupid, and
think typing makes them look impressive. (I'd certainly like to
think that it would be one of the former, but considering some
people I've seen around, using and advocating Unix, I'm not so
sure) :)
