"Your blanket comments about everthing Microsoft makes is crap shows your
stubborn loyalty to anything that is non-Microsoft."
Nope, just years of experience proving me right when it comes to MS stuff,
that's all.
" I frankly don't care WHO makes it but instead what it does."
Well, I do, especially when they are known for crap…
" Windows NT is in my opinion the operating system of the future and many
others share this view. If your a serious animator upgrading your system in
order to be more productive is taken for granted. If you want to boycott
Microsoft go ahead and do it but don't waste your time nagging everyone here."
Who's nagging? Just put in my 2 Cents worth and if they don't agree with your 3
Cent coins, don't fly off the handle. FWIW, Almost EVERY serious developer I
know, prefers OS/2 over NT and ALL told me not to bother with it since years by
now. (just so you know why I'm feeling this way). Just because MS Windows is
the standard, doesn't mean it's a good one…
" Instead of saying blatently that Windows NT sucks why not give it a try then
come back."
Did I say it "sucks"? Well, anyhow, as I stated earlier, lots of others have
tried it and they came to the conclusion that it "sucks" (your words).
It seems to me that you don't have exposure to any REAL multitasking, multiuser
OS's like UNIX et al and that's probably why NT (after your regular Windows
experience I assume) must look so overwhelmingly good to you.
