If these "countless companies that are selling Linux-powered products" existed as hypochrisv says they do, the Linux "advocates" in this newsgroup (her included), wouldn't have to work at a Windows job to pay the bills. >> Of course, he will get some support from trolling morons like >> -highhorse... - From smart people, sure. > Maybe I'm missing something here but it seems to me that two > scenarios are being blurred into one. > > From the point of working in a job using Windows and simply > quitting that job to work in a job that uses/allows Linux just to > follow an ideology is what I'm referring to.

There might be Linux programming jobs, but they are not as plentiful as the "advocates" in this newsgroup suggest because companies producing software, like Corel, Adobe and others, don't hire Linux programmers to make ports of their software for the open-source operating system. Why? Because nobody pays for software in Linux and most potential users would rather bitch "show me the code" than pay even a dollar for indispensable software. Like I said before, if these "countless companies" were hiring people to program on Linux, there wouldn't be so many hypocrites in this newsgroup boasting about Linux all the while using Windows. - -- Silver Slimer Islam is a disease Gab.AI: @silverslimer -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJX/QUkAAoJEIwFfgf/rr+uG9kH/RN/S2RegH3ELxbe0EG2cRk8 agxdJpK6EYsAMwIM7Q0id0gAfOzoDp0xWO3QTu0B9xhqFFnynC7kF80E+3ndmOHb wJjtkSzr0SGHJnQAyIvIQ6rN6xsDhV5W1RUUw9qdAB3+/jvhx3rKvFaY5DY4LYRN kCZZLwgDnhH6IvnT2/Ptg0GJq7OTXhEX9wGzXxq8ti3TuyGVSO6BS6F8Sn04QTz6 TEWyI9hJuAKNmRQurh2q6Oui/f+ptPkyoIhBNgoPKp026RmD4pTEu4LFeiH9OEDO Lu3VEIuS5mgy6b6YaP5lULwNTCFQEWuhwB/5b1HFeOiq0Inga8e33HwQD+nWGTk= =+Njw -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
