and now you just became more awesome.  (sans the Kubuntu part, but I
do not care.)

Do you really think that those Windows idiots know what they are
talking about?  It’s Windows, for fuck’s sake.  The only OS in the
market that does not give a shit about POSIX.  Windows does need an
IDE, then, because it is really hard to do anything useful without
one.  Sure, this mail was sent from Windows, but I am using it for
gaming purposes.  If I want to do some programming, Linux is the
proper environment.  For me, it is Arch Linux with KDE and Konsole,
running tabs of vim (with [python-mode][]) and ipython.  And other
useful tools (among others, Chrome with the docs.)

That is great news.
