I don't have a marketing dept  but I do have clients who came to me: "I have a Windows server (file server/e-mail server/firewall/etc.) and it crashes/gets virused/frozen/whatever all the time. I heard Linux is more secure/stable etc. I would like to try that...". Now those are smart clients that did use the MS family of "wonderful" products and got tired of hitting Ctrl+Alt+Del all the time, or calling for tech support 10 times a day... Now they barely see their sysadmin...

You tech folks are too funny :blue:
Unfortunately, I'll be hiring one in January, so I better not post too much LOL.
Does anyone think 42K per year is, "Fair". I'd like to offer 22K lol, as the techies over here are BEGGING for work. But I want him to do other things, like answer some calls, take out the trash, etc. :brow:

Now, how much does YOUR country owe us?

Just because somebody does not like M$ in particular... or does not agree with your personal opinions, does not make him an "US hater".
I don't know how much his country or mine owe to US, but you definitely owe some respect to the people on these forums, respect you seem to lack more and more...
Louisville, KY.... isn't that the home of KKK?

You're a real class act, Alex. :roll:
I'm sorry you feel resentment towards those who are successful, as MS is.
"as for the ammount, 22k or 42K if its US$ its still **** all."
Alex, tell me this isn't an, "Anti-US" statement.

And tell me you wernt trying to push my buttons.
Religion and nationalism are the 2 Crutches of humanity,
My country owes yours nothing and more importantly I owe YOU nothing, now considering we were having a discussion about linux and you seem to know nothing about it, I would prefer if this didnt degenerate into a slagging match because you think you know something or have some point to prove.

No Mike, this wasn't an attempt to push your buttons. I'm sorry if you felt that way. Are you looking for work?

C'mon Paul, $$$ equals US in your opinion... ? Besides, Darksat was referring to the *amount* of dollars you were paying, not to the dollars itselves, so no, I don't think that statement is anti-american.
