Hey! He's right! Who you calling a user?! If anyone deserves to be snotty
about the superiority of their OS, it has to be a Linux
SysAdminRootSuperUserManager. How many PC owners can say that they
_compiled_ their own OS? Neverming that you usually don't have to
recompile the damn kernal to install a sound card! (ducking)
I like ALE, too. So I won't comment on the relative difficulty of
pronouncing a one syllable word vs a two syllable word. :-)
Cheers,
Gary
