Re: [LUG] Business South West

 

Guys

Don't start Microsoft bashing as Linux can be as sh*t as Windows if the
individual doesn't have a clue or the developers are having a bad day. We
manage over 54 Windows 2003 servers and 8 Linux servers and over the past 2
years both have been fantastic and have their place both in educational and
the commercial environment.

If Microsoft products are the only ones going wrong, why are there people
providing support for Linux applications and servers (making money)?

Just my thoughts!

True, I guess Microsoft get away with it.
