The only things I need Windows (or Mac) for is my tax software and my piano tuning software - that's it !!!!!!
So actually you are saying that Linux is not yet perfect, not even for your use. It could only reach your standard of perfection when you are able to run your tax software and your piano tuning software on it.
The key word here is "perfect". While I can agree on an asymptotic approximation of the concept of total perfection (omega point or whatever you want to call it) but that is still very far from the current state of Linux, that I call "adequate" (or "good enough").
My apologies for being a dictionary worm, but choosing the right words can be very important, especially in written communication where you loose all nonverbal modes of communication.
My thoughts exactly. What are the names of the Tax software and piano tuning software? Have you written to the authors and let them know that there is interest in running their software in Linux? -- Dotan Cohen http://what-is-what.com http://gibberish.co.il א-ב-ג-ד-ה-ו-ז-ח-ט-י-ך-כ-ל-ם-מ-ן-נ-ס-ע-ף-פ-ץ-צ-ק-ר-ש-ת ä-ö-ü-ß-Ä-Ö-Ü
