Windows Is Like...

Sometimes it's hard to avoid Windows, no matter how hard you try. In this case, I administer the Linux server involved in this, err, "little" project and being the jack-of-trades that I am, I got sucked into this, err, "little" project. Those specialists don't know how easy they have it. ^_^

While it is a very small project, Windows always finds some way to complicate even the simplest things just because users expect everything to have a GUI. Windows may be the dominant OS of our time but it is an island. It's kind of like Australia. It's a big continent but it's still just an island where the isolation allowed some oddball wild life to thrive. In the same way, Windows allows non-standard software to thrive.

I apologize to the Australians for comparing their country to Windows. I wouldn't want to be the cause of an international incident. ^_^
