[MLB-WIRELESS] Who Gives a S**T About Which OS?????

[Grant McHerron]

Oh come on you lot - I didn't join this bloody mailing list for YAOSBW (Yet 
Another Operating System Bigot War) - that's what I read Slashdot for :)

Whether I use Unix, *BSD, Linux (in whatever flavour), Mac, Windoze, Palm 
or an abacus should be immaterial unless you're giving me concrete 
information that will help me avoid/resolve issues associated with setting 
up/running a wireless cloud (and no, telling me to wipe my machine and 
start again with a "real" O/S does not go down well at all, I can assure you :)

I've been going through the whole damned "My OS makes my dick bigger than 
yours!" bullshit longer than I care to remember and it doesn't help any of 
us get through our day's work.

For what it's worth - I've made stacks of $$$ from fixing defects in ALL of 
the operating systems I've ever had the joy of encountering because they 
are all INHERENTLY BROKEN!!!! I've yet to encounter a system that's 
perfect, best for me, intuitive, etc etc etc (the list includes Mac, 
Windoze, *nix, OS/2, etc) I use whichever one suits the 
client/purpose/budget/is_nearest_to_me and then do what I can to prevent 
the (l)users from buggering it up :)

So, the upshot is that tongue in cheek, humourous, whatever - I don't give 
a flying F***K which one you love, use or tug-off to while in bed at night 
(so long as it can display net-pr0n, it's OK, right? :) I do care about how 
to plug security holes, configure cards/routers and mesh clouds...

Cheers,

Grant

PS  Sorry, just annoyed at having to wade through all this crap to find a 
couple of interesting emails PLUS find the non-MelbourneWireless ones that 
are important for me to address ASAP - keep this up and MelbourneWireless 
emails will get consigned to the "I'll read it one day" bucket...
