My smugness comes from the fact that got one of my clients off the MS Junkie list. Next year I'll work on them to switching to Linux workstations.<BR/><BR/>Years ago I use to code in C++ for SCO based server solutions. Now I'm into php, MySQL, Apache. I still like the Novell server solutions, Novell has always been a rock solid server platform. The only time I have to reboot a Novell server is when I have down it for physical maintainance.<BR/><BR/>Anyways, I had been meaning to blog about those apps for months now, but never got around to it, and it was this month that I did my first pitch and sold a client on the idea. And yes they will be donating to these Open Source coding projects, I'm still twisting their arm to get them make a nice health "Thank you", but it will still be no where near what they were FORCED to pay to that whoring pimp Microsoft.<BR/><BR/>I'm still smiling about the fact that kicked Billy boy in the balls.<BR/><BR/>Merry Christmas CC, figures you're an Open Source Geek, it shows in the intelligence design (nuk nuk nuk) of your post.<BR/><BR/>Keep those Blogging Bow Shots aimed south.Zorpheoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09618889126077232837noreply@blogger.com
