Really? I have not seen these
applications you speak of being installed with XP-Pro. And I just finished a build for a friend too.

"XP doesn't come with much? Mine came with a robust webserver, middleware (MSMQ), networking capabilities such that I could host a domain and web site on my laptop. ASP.NET, C#, VB.NET, J#, python, smalltalk...all can"

MSMQ has been around since Win2K. Same with eh networking, XP has only made it slightly easier. ASP.NET, C#, VB.NET, J#, python and smalltalk... all are separate apps that need to be installed. They are not installed by default, like they would be with say (sans the Windows specific) a Linux or FreeBSD install.

I have been reading your posts, and quite frankly I am led to believe you are another incarnation of No_Axe_to_grind.

Regardless, your constant attacks against anything not from Redmond really detract from your credibility. The fact that you have not seen the issues others, myself included, with Windows does not mean they do not exist. I use the tool that fits the job, like any good mechanic. And if I need to make a tool, then Linux and Open Source is my choice for making whatever tool I may need, whether it's to be used on Windows, Macintosh, Linux or Unix.

Your use of the Linux name is misleading as well.

Namaste
