Message-ID: <alpine.BSF.2.21.9999.2403080714220.75271@aneurin.horsfall.org> (raw)

Started off with CP/M, then switched to BSD/OS (giving Windoze a miss)
when I decided that I wanted a Unix box at home.
When WinDriver bought them and shut them down, I switched to FreeBSD
(which is still my server); I use an old MacBook Pro for web/graphics/etc,
with multiple SSH windows into the server.
No time for Penguin/OS; I don't like the way that it shoves all 3rd-party
stuff into /usr/bin etc (those are system directories, but is typical of
the rank amateurism of penguins), nor the attitude of the users who deny
the very existence of non-Penguin POSIX systems that were around for
decades beforehand.
