Listen, pal: I work with Unix since 1982. Actually, I started with Unix 7, with a classic AT&T source license. I work with Linux since 1994 when I installed 0.99.4. I earn my money by planning global data centers for mission-critical Unix servers and IBM mainframes of multi-national companies. Don't talk to me about dumbing down computers -- it's quite possible that I have much more experience with big iron computing than you do.
Get off your high horse.... There's a lot more experienced people here than you, I can guarantee that.
And with this 20+ years of experience with Unix and this 10+ years experience with Linux, I can tell you: You're wrong.
45 years experience with computers here.... almost all mainframe experience. go'way kid........ -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
