![]() hell even Xenix the userland has never ‘fit’ linux, but rather been tacked on… But yes I know it’s because the GNU tools arose in a vacuum with no kernel to fulfill it’s environment. It’s just as counter intuitive then as it is now. ![]() I think that is the worst of it, is that I’ve been using linux since the sls days (remember hex editing the boot floppy to use the hard disk as root?) and it still feels the same. It’s a shame that Linus didn’t bundle some kind of install & userland back in the day letting SLS fit the bill back then…. I’ve had 0 luck with the pimply teenage crowd with Oracle, then Microsoft…Īnd then there is the whole cost structure associated with the teenage photo copier crowd, but of course it’s Redhat, and the “solution” is to use… yet another distro.Īt least MS’s os offerings are not, and never will be as fragmented as the linux thing. I think the main thing that separates them is support. ![]() Well then I could add copying them… poorly but I guess you could fire back the same part about say CP/M vs MS-DOS… VMS to NT. Could you not have come up with a more original attack upon Linux and FOSS? Without agreeing with your implication that Linux (and FOSS, in general) does not sometimes implement original ideas, as does sometimes, Microsoft, Apple, and other players… I ask you in what way is implementing good ideas which originated elsewhere a bad thing? I fear that you are just copying Microsoft’s “Innovation Mania” concept. It is interesting, the way you try to direct the dialog. ![]()
