It does appear to be an empty, petty criticism doesn't it? I mean he
wrote that long winded analysis while teenaged college students
were eargerly learning unix by the droves without much issue and plenty
finesse. Makes him seem half-rate through that lense.

I never been a unix guy despite my past. Went from DOS > Windows 98 >
Linux. I use windows only for work, as it's mandated. It's fine I
guess. Im in Teams meetings all the time and anything I do, workwise, is
inside a putty screen or doing diagrams. 

Not sure what drives the apple cult, to be honest. I worked for the
company during college and gleefully surrendered my badge when real
careeer prospects presented themselves. The company demanded more from
the employees than the salaries would indicate. They would just say 'hey
look you can put apple on your resume.' All this told future employers
is that you're a sucker who won't ever try to negotiate a higher salary.

After my first big industry job, the first thing to be deleted on the
resume was Apple and associated references. It was more of a stain.

The only thing I got from that experience, other than a deep dislike for
the company, is a close friendship with my old manager.

My current dream machine, no joke, is a color maximite 2.
