I agree with this, I'm not sure that Linux is ready to beat Widnows for the desktop environment. However, I do prefer the bash shell and highly recommend cygwin (with mintty). To me, this is the best of both worlds. If you are set to inst

Personally, when I am working on a project, I find it is easy to lose my way when I reach the point of knowing I am capable of finishing it -- even if still in planning. It interests me more to know that I could do it than actually proving

Great idea in theory, but not everyone can afford the costs of spending as much time as they want without income (much less follow it up by traveling for two years). In the real world, people are often forced to 'grow up' faster than they w
