Good points. I agree that it's reasonable to construe what I was saying as a swipe at Windows.
What I really meant, and I guess I didn't do a sufficient job at getting this across, was that I know Unix is rock-solid; I don't know the same about Windows. Truth be told, I know very little about Windows since I haven't used it for 4 years. I was going for a positive point about Unix, not a negative one about Windows.
But you have a pretty good point about my praise of Unix being a vacuous swipe at Windows.
- gridspy 16y agoI only use Windows because I am always in too much of a rush to pass through the pain of adopting a new operating system on my desktop machine. We do deploy onto Linux. I don't have any local Linux / Unix help. Perhaps if you joined the team, many of the other developers would also have switched. I might have if I was from this company.
