>Unix Slob? Eh.. Hmm. Dark Ages? hmmm. Maybe you just run N.T. cause your >just not smart enough to learn UNIX? Oh dear, let's not get nasty about OSes. Anyway, Randy said "SNOB", not "slob", and I must admit to being a bit of a "Unix Snob". (I also like MGs and Volvos better than American cars, so one can see that my logic is consistent, even though it may be faulty.) Now I'm sorry I added my comment about Unix. I was talking about Java, guys, JAVA!!! One thing I have noticed in my many moons in this business is that my artist friends never have heated arguments over which brand of paintbrush is "best", but any two technologists will come to blows over even minor points. This is why I cannot invite many of my techie friends to the more fashionable parties here at "Little House On The Internet". >Maybe you took LD classes? Maybe you struggled your way through class. >Maybe you even bought Windows for Dummies? Ouch. Hey, be nice. Hey, I have said for years that Unix >>IS<< user-friendly, but it is somewhat choosy about who it makes friends with. Kiss and make up now, this is a business built more on cooperation, standards, and sharing than on software. I would rather lose my entire set of Unix source masters than lose the open and friendly resources like this list!!! Don't worry about "doing things right", focus on "doing the Right Thing". james fischer jfischer@supercollider.com ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request@bungi.com To get FAQ'd: <<A HREF="http://www.shore.net/~dreaming/ascend-faq">http://www.shore.net/~dreaming/ascend-faq</A>> or <<A HREF="ftp://ftp.shore.net/members/dreaming/ascend-faq.txt">ftp://ftp.shore.net/members/dreaming/ascend-faq.txt</A>> </PRE> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <STRONG>Follow-Ups</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A HREF="msg01172.html">Re: (ASCEND) Re: MAX Java Configurator confounder</A></STRONG></LI> <UL> <LI><EM>From</EM>: Does it really matter <bend@ali.intop.net></LI> </UL> </UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <HR> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01164.html">Re: (ASCEND) o's in PRI display</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01163.html">(ASCEND) MPP/Shared Prof/RADIUS</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01160.html">Re: (ASCEND) Re: MAX Java Configurator confounder</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg01172.html">Re: (ASCEND) Re: MAX Java Configurator confounder</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="maillist.html#01168"><STRONG>Main</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thrd45.html#01168"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> </BODY> </HTML>
