Yes, I've heard about this linux thing. It's something to do with computers, isn't it? Apparently it's pretty good. At least, that's what my mate says.

All credit goes to Linus Torvalds who created linux and made it
open source, the best thing about linux is that it doesn't limits your knowledge, by modifying linux source either you can run your
automatic washing-machine or any NASA rocket.

I'm also using W7 in this PC. The other three desktops are using Ubuntu like all my personal laptops, notebooks and servers.
About 200 of our 10000 desktops and one of our about 50 large servers is using Linux. Most of our local servers and the grid are using Linux.
When we write our own software, specially for the laboratories and large databases we are using Linux. You can never trust that the software written for M$ can be used in the next wersion of M$Win without major modifications.

rofl, in case you didn't pick up on the sarcasm Satyaveer, you might be best to read all previous post before replying in the future.

Hahahahaaaa...  k3lt01, for your information I must tell you that, you're right ofcourse. I'm using windows. But I sit in my cabin and remotely I handle 10 Linux Servers daily and sometimes directly. And I work on RHEL 5.3.

I'm trying really hard not to be sarcastic but it is difficult when given so much ammunition
Satyaveer here's some feedback. These threads, yes there are a few now and they have been started over the last 3 days, are just spam. If you were as on the ball as you seem to be trying to point out you are you would have realised this. Instead you replied by stating the obvious that 2 other people already had in this, and at least one other, thread. You can tell me you handle all the linux servers you want but it seems you've lost the plot at the moment
