Re: what's wrong with doze and good with linux?
Agree on that one with Erik.
As far as I've seen, scientists are 'tired' of the following:
OS (Win 3x/95): Unstable, poor use of machine resources, slow,
poor optimization of kernel;
Win98 will be similar (or worse): Read it'd require more machine
resources and will be optimized for a chip which yet has to appear
in the market.
Software: Marketing strategies of software industry (modularization:
if you want X buy module A and if you want Y buy module B;
to get Z you should upgrade to version V(n) ... a never
ending story;
Low cost effectivity of commercial software; low quality;
lies in announcements, bugs;
Hey, Merry L*UXmas!
