Hi

If Windows is everything UNIX would like to be, how come Windows has something called a blue screen? Haven't the UNIX programmers had the time to develop this yet?

And, on Windows, there's a new security patch each day. Is this just to tighten security, or is it bugs? UNIX doesn't have something called Windows update. Is this to ease up the way you have to update the servers each day?

UNIX has been here since 1960:s. Windows has been here since 1994(if you don't count Windows 286, which I don't).

Somehow, I think some people are just to in love with GUI and wizards. This is somethings that doesn't counter when there's a real disaster, Then you want high performance and reliability.

Best Regards

Well this is not the case Daniel. I do have Unix experience. With Sun's
version of Unix before it became Solaris, SunOS, with SCO Unix, with DEC
Ultrix and another company who's no longer in business Convergent. I don't
remember what they called it. I've used X-Terminals on my desktop before
PC's became vogue. Shoot I even modified DEC's install script to support
third party drives with Ultrix. Windows is everything Unix should be, easy
to use, powerful... I think many so called 'Unix specialists' are just
jealous that mom and pop from down the street can setup Windows in an
afternoon and do everything that the specialists took 3 days to get running
on Unix.
