{OT} Interesting view on Windows/Linux+Wine

Hello again,


In a pm a friend wrote this:

 Emulators usually suck because they run at a fraction
 of the speed of the real thing and when a weird interrupt call is
 initiated they choke... I have also heard some emulators want money
 to give you ability to use some software. If I had to choose between
 windoze and putting up with wine etc.... I choose windoze because
 that is less time I spend messing with trying to make something work
 I could be doing something useful. If I were poor I could save about
 $150 or less going the linux/wine thing but having to deal with
 compatibity every time you want to use a new piece of softare will
 quickly undo any savings that you could just get a part time job to
 buy windoze with.


Interesting view?  Should i even bother getting Linux since i already
have Windows?



Take care,
Al

And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!
