And 2015 will be the Year of Linux too, right?
Posting this from Linux Mint 17 with an XFCE desktop running Firefox Nightly and Emacs 24.
For some reason Linux just doesn’t get the love. People see Macs as being “cool” when it’s Linux that you can trip out to your heart’s content. It feeds your inner nerd like nothing else.
I’m thinking about going with a tiling window manager like Xmonad or Awesome Window Manager. Want six monitors all hooked up to the same computer? These managers can do it and use only a tiny fraction of memory.

Well my webserver that i maintain is a Linux Apache Mysql Php box and I see absolutely zero reason to go back to Microsoft. My in house software is developed on java, so again see no reason to go back. I can’t afford autocad so i’ve gone to Blender which is supported on Unix. About the only thing I’m still stuck with is Word and Excel and Star Office isn’t so bad i couldn’t swap.
I can’t be the only one in this boat. Add up all the licenses and it is a bundle I’ve saved. Microsoft Buggy Whip Corporation.
