Delighted to hear it bro! - May I point out that "business types (who don't know any better...&c)" CAN come over to the Unix side: I was one and I did, precisely because of the crashing and viruses.
Our sysadmin convinced me to ditch Win entirely, in 1997/8, and since then in my (biz consulting) company alone some 35 people got to work with Sun and Linux, with FOSS philosophy: more than half never looked at M$ again... and several became "IT savvy" enough to pursue projects or careers in IT. Maybe with Openindiana we shouldn't miss out on our little bit of Evangelism... ~RB On Fri, Jun 7, 2013 at 12:21 AM, Dave McGuire <[email protected]> wrote: > On 06/06/2013 08:00 PM, Christopher Chan wrote: > >> Well, I do work in a technical industry, where people are a bit less > >> tolerant of garbage.
