Re: Linux is booming at 300 million installations!! (Get off the high horse those who haven't tried LINUX)

[Quoted] What's all the negative press... I am an Access developer, but I currently [Quoted] also use Linux and I happen to think it's a great operating system. For those of you that have the big problem Linux, Have you ever used it? I happen to have it running on 3 servers. Using it as an e-mail, web, and IP Masquerading server. The operating system is NOT just for hackers! It is [Quoted] very stable and works well on any given network. I am also using it in many [Quoted] instances with Access and CGI scripting.

I understand if you don't want people selling stuff in the group, but DON'T go dogging the operating system because it's very powerful!!!
