Uhh, I work on Solaris at work, and trust me, you ain't missing out
on anything. In fact, it seems like everytime we turn around, another
GNU tool goes on our box. We started wit gcc, PERL, emacs, less, rcs.

Ok, ok, everytime there is a need for a tool, I raise the GNU tool and
say, "Hey look, it works, and it's free"

I get these rebuttals like, "Well, what if there is a trojan horse in it?"
We have lots of FUDS at the Army Corps of Engineers.

Of course management grows increasingly quiet as the tool keeps producing.
I would like to replace our "Enterprise Netscape" web server with Apache.
I am amazed that Netscape actually sold a program that practically fits
on a floppy disk for the amounts it did.

There are some developers who are working with Interdev. For some reason
it has not worked out well.
