Boys and their toys. ;-)

I have a computer and it has two OS's installed. Both serve me well in
all the functionalities I need. It's more or less down to a toss of coin
which one I boot into when I turn on my computer.

I work in IT, my specialty is the field where at the end of the day you
see that all OS are the same: they all have their strengths and
weaknesses. What is important is understanding those weaknesses and
using them to your advantage; or steering clear of that OS. :-)

For your line of work one OS might be better than the other; I have no
problem with that. I won't try to persuade you otherwise and I expect
the same from you. They're all just tools, anyway.

Some evangelise RFs, some SLRs. Some know they're just tools and use
both, depending on a task at hand.

So, all I'm asking you is ... can we please get back to our standard
topic of firearms and SUVs? Please?
