<big>As a life long student of spiritual matters, and a holder of
a
Masters of Theological Studies, I'm amused by non-religious
"religions." The ways are so similar:<br>
<br>
A - Assurance of salvation/freedom/a better life.<br>
<br>
B - Belief! Just believe, ignore the obvious and inevitable
contradictions and cognitive dissonances.<br>
<br>
C - Convert. Go get 'em!<br>
<br>
And, boy do I ever see this with non-Windows users! Outside of
Redmond, I doubt if many Windows users are as passionate as
those
preferring OS X and Linux. Certainly not much conversion
attempting
since Windows is the dominant system. <br>
<br>
Without dredging up point/counterpoint of the recent posts -
which I
never intended when I asked, simply, "How do repositories get
updated?"
- it's obvious that many of you are living in the past or on
legend
about Windows issues. My XP SP3 is rock solid. OK, most of the
time.
A hissy fit once in awhile. With Windows 7 and maybe Vista the
infamous ntloader issue is moot, it self-corrects. The horrors
of
running an anti-virus are history, the Microsoft programs are
free and
completely unobtrusive. Finally. And with Windows Update, OS
improvements and security matters are, well, automatic. Most
users
will never, ever need to use a Command Prompt. <br>
<br>
Hey, I don't care if one is a Baptist, a Catholic, an Apple
kisser, or
a genuflector to the Torvald altar, or what. Just don't present
emotion and reaction as ration. <br>
<br>
Each to their own. Religious freedom is assured, at least here
in
America. <br>
<br>
We now return to our Linux programming............<br>
