Ideology: Microsoft vs Unix-Like

I figured I’d start my first blog postings with some of my ideologies. One of the most fundamental ideological rifts is in the operating system of choice among IT veterans. Mainly Microsoft vs Unix-like. I say Unix-Like because of the many “Unix-Like” platforms we have to choose from nowadays, from Linux to the BSD’s to the Mac OSX, each with there own unique characteristics, pros, and cons, but all essentially “unix” minus the trademark.

I use both Microsoft and Unix-like operating systems as do a lot of us, so its hard for me to choose one over the other, maybe impossible. Its almost as if one of my children asked me who my favorite child was. I would lie and say I have no favorite, even if I did. Although one may give me less headache and grief, I can’t function without either. They both have a place in my world.

As I would not like to be host to a flame war, I have closed commenting on this post. This is my ideology, not yours.
