less maladjusted

[Raphael rtennenbaum@xxxxxxxx]

Can't help it, but when I see these OT threads about the horrors of
malware -- as well as the demise of DOS support in the MS kingdom -- I
have to pipe up about Linux. The latest version of Ubuntu, Precise
Pangolin, is at the same time 1) very easy to use out of the box and 2)
potentially extraordinarily powerful and with the right tools, not at
all difficult to configure. I just posted a little entry about it on my
blog (they've got it up on ubuntu-news.net!) and it contains a glancing
reference to XyWrite

& as bears repeating, malware/virus is a non-issue and dosemu support
shows not the least sign of eroding. Is it for everyone? Well, actually,
it is. One of these days I'm going to put together a page about running
XyWrite under Linux -- but for the time being, Edward Mendelson's
WordPerfect for DOS under Linux will get you started.


Paul Lagasse, how do you like Unity?
