Why is the development tools industry literally phucking us up the ass? = Yahoo, Walnut Creek, CDROM and other huge Internet sites relly on the = BSDs. It is also a great DESKTOP O/S too if it gets the same offerings = that Linux gets! Come on...Mac OS/X is based on FreeBSD! Need I say = more?? The day a tools vendor ships a NATIVE version that runs on the BSDs is = the day that more and more developers migrate to these same platforms = for good! BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME!! You guys have no concept of PLANTING THE = SEED THAT BEARS BOUNTIFUL FRUIT. Do you? Finally, you guys are so STUPID that you are blinded by all the media = hype about Linux just because it has one guy (Linus), whom everyone's = rooting for against "big, bad Microsoft." What ever happened to supporting the product that's the most STABLE, = SECURED, and FASTEST? Meanwhile, the BSDs came out of the University of California at Berkeley = thanks to the great Bill Joy who just happens to be one of the worlds = greatest programmers and now Sun's top tech guru. Is it any surprise = that Solaris is also doing well? And Sun, shame on you for not shipping = a native JDK and J2EESDK for the BSDs! But I predict with Microsoft = screwing around with Corel and getting them to move C# and .NET over to = FreeBSD, I will bet my mother's retirement plan that a JDK magically = appears out of thin air around the time .NET is available! You guys, = too, are ASSHOLES in SOME regards -- not ALWAYS! :-) And you IBM, Oracle (er Horacle??), and Sybase! You ship your phucking = products and pump billions into Linux and ignore the cotton'pikin BSDs?? = Are you stupid or what??? All I'm saying to all you idiots is to SHIP = some products our way! Do you honestly abelieve that Linux is superior = to the BSDs? Gimme a break, dudes! Look at the mess Linux is in with their programming model compared to = the BSDs ports concept! The programmers involved in the BSDs would easily put any of those Linux = part time hackers to shame. The proof is in the FINAL PRODUCT. To conclude, if VISUAL TOOLS like Delphi, C++ Builder, RealBasic, = ActivePython, ActivePERL, JBuilder, Dylan, CommonLisp, etc. And Borland, for Pete's sakes, why don't you at least port the command = line version of the Delphi Object Pascal compiler over to the BSDs just = like the built-in C/C++ compilers that come standard with any Linux or = BSD distro??? For Criss sakes, use your noggin and sow some seeds for = future generations!! Shessh!!! Is this so hard to do?? I know I'd rather = do my low level coding in Object Pascal than waste time with all of = C++'s hassles! You did it already with the command line BCC 5 compiler = on X-86...why not do the same damn thing with Object Pascal on Linux and = FreeBSD? Oh well...I just felt that an END USER in the MIS world had to let you = astute business wizards know what we're thinking because most of you = guys seem to have a pickle stuck up your asses! You simply do not know = how to nuture a market that gets no respect from the Visual Tools arena, = yet ALL OF YOU ARE PROBABLY USING BSD code PRIVATELY. Right?
