Linux is in the forefront of the free software crusade. Linux is the most visible. We should all cheer the success of Linux. Mr. Andreesen's comments were not antigonistic toward everyone else. He was merely stating what he had observed. There is no purpose in being angry with him for not acknowledging other unices. If ever time I made a statement, the community at large accosted me for not knowing about "this, that and the other thing", then I would quit making any statements. Would you all like people to point out your lack of knowledge every time you said something? Give Mr. Andreesen a break. Have fun, | Stop warning me about the latest virus. Learn more...
