I yearned for an OS like this for so many years. Back in the pre Windows 3.0 days (1988-90) I was running all sorts of PC Unixes trying to get something that was stable and had a rich feature set. When Windows shipped I wanted a GUI on top of Unix. 20 years later I have it - and more. Linux is way, way more than I ever envisioned a Unix OS could be. Not only do we have a Unix compatible OS, we have a complete GUI, actually 2 or three of them, a whole swarm of tools and stuff that I never imagined. Just look at Eclipse ! And its all open source ! And its all free ! I first used Linux in 1996. I was thrilled but still wanting. Open Office wasn't available, it was time intensive to set up different hardware, etc. But it was light and fast. I was hooked. Now look at Linux. Its friggin amazing. And so is modern PC hardware, especially LCD monitors, laptops, etc. I remember the days of being over the moon at having access to a Sun workstation. I remember drooling over a Next machine. We have come so far. Its incredible, it really is. Nothing is going to stop this juggernaut. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
