“Linux is for hobbyists, “

Ummmm, no. I do books, media, databases, spreadsheets, real estate software, cad, documentaries, and more. No hobbyist here. And it saves me a buttload of money.

My take has always been that if you use Linux you are, by definition, a hobbyist. I say that as someone that used to build my own computers and even tried Linux and also used OS/2 and OS/2 Warp.

I also used to have a beta vcr.

I’ve dumped all that and now just go with the flow. Oddly, I’ve really learned to love windows 10, even though I’m no fan of the company.

And yes, I tried Wine. Not impressed.
