Mr Meowski fortunately got asbestos soul pants as a christmas present from his ever loving/suffering girlfriend, so is fully prepared for nether-region linux-related fireblasts. I have a challenge for you meanwhile: get two computers (VM instances are fine). Install Win8.1 Pro on one, with full secureboot/EFI enabled and a FDE solution installed: I'd recommend Truecrypt over BitLocker (because NSA/GCHQ). Add a short bunch of recommended addons: sysinternals suite, cygwin/X, etc. Now install a vanilla Ubuntu 13.10 + Unity system on the other VM, and compare. Specifically, go and do a real days work, in an actual business environment with both of those hypothetical systems. You know, a *real* one, where they have IIS servers, an AD domain and mixed client operating systems. One where fictional, idiotic Phil Hudson-esque (god bless him!) RMS-derived philosophical stupidity is less important than using the right tool for the right job. This also includes nominally "linux only" shops (which don't exist) where all the server heavy lifting is done by Linux, but the office staff all use Windows and the graphic design/PR crew use Macs. And the backend CRM is Solaris/Salesforce. I eagerly await your report. POSTED FROM MY AWESOME SURFACE RT Regards PS1: Yes, I am obviously trolling. PS2: Clever trolls are making a point, not just trolling (I hope) PS3: Daniel, god bless you for still being awake!
Bad! You are too brainy for your own good! You should drink more! HAPPY NEW YEAR :-P
