I envy those who's work is specific / targeted enough for them to be able to only use Linux on their desktop, I really do (and I say that without a hint of sarcasm, I promise). For the rest of us, the choice sadly isn't as black and white.
It's simple. In the job interview you ask, "Will I be able to use Linux (or Mac OS) as my primary desktop OS?" When they say no, you get up and leave. I've done it twice in the past year or so. I could only image the stupidity I would have found once inside the door if they exhibited that level of clueless-ness in the interview. One company actually told me they were afraid I would be pirating software unless I used a windoze OS that could be 'audited' by their sysadmins. I blinked a couple of times, got up, and walked out. -- Greg Donald http://destiney.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
