Once a Linux system is set up and configured -- a process which contributes to understanding and which most users embrace with relish -- there is only occasional and easy maintenance to perform. I would claim that MS Windows requires more work because the user must keep a vigilant eye on all the undocumented policies that tend to mess up a clean configuration. For example, on MS Windows 8.1 I've got to constantly watch the process list for the appearance of the "Store Broker," and this is just one of many other annoyances that could be problematic. (I will make no comment on that heap of stinking garbage known as MS Windows 10.) With MS Windows, the concerned user must never let his guard down because the system belongs to Microsoft and its software vassals. With GNU/Linux, the user is rightly lord of his own machine.

I spent a lot of time finding coding work-a-rounds. I love the Linux OS and coding environment, but many things that "just work" on other OSs won me over. Now I have stuff "that just works" in addition to the Unix environment. -- sci.physics is an unmoderated newsgroup dedicated to the discussion of physics, news from the physics community, and physics-related social issues.

The setup and configuration of Linux systems is well hidden behind a giant pile of scripts so any idiot can get it running. You have no clue what system administration on a real OS such as Solaris Unix is like. -- Jim Pennino

You don't NEED to sacrifice quality with Linux to use something like VLC, Thunderbird, GnuPG or LibreOffice. In fact, considering how terrible the power management in Linux is, it would make sense to NOT use it and rely on an operating system which helps to save electricity by ALLOWING the damned machine to go to sleep or hibernate rather than always run at full blast like a Linux install does. - -- Slimer EFF & OpenMedia member / IFAW & PETA supporter Wretched Stallman says: "Only YOU can prevent Snit's leftist, atheist propaganda machine."

Linux is the Windows of the Unix world; just about everything about the system is hidden behind scripts that you can not find without hours of digging. Want to apply patches? There are at least 3 differenct patching systems, no two of which give the same results more often than not. I think I'll stick to Solaris Unix for anything real. -- Jim Pennino

Sam, everyone admits that once they left school they never ever used
math again! So why teach it? So we don't. This is the American idea and
why kids today (like the ones cutting and pasting for you) are as
ignorant as you are. Do you do cursive? Didn't think so even though they
used to teach it back then.
