[Simh] Fwd: Re: EXT :Re: Ultrix 4.0 and DEQNA-LOCK

[Ray Jewhurst]

Well truth be told even for most things I prefer Linux, I have been using
Windows both as an end user and an IT professional since the early 90s, I
am a rank amateur in Unix like systems. With Windows I know every in and
out but I'm kind of clunky still with Unix. Also I am a very hands-on
learner and my only Linux education is from Web surfing. I'm sure if I
learned the nuances I'd be better but I am still CLI-intimidated.

Not sure what kind of pains or issues you see.
I've been writing code that deals with network interfaces for many years,
and on Unix it usually just works and is very simple, while on Windows
machines, it's a pain in the butt, if it works at all.

And I've used the same code on both Linux, OpenBSD and NetBSD, and it works
the same on all of them.

Also been running simh on both OSX and Linux with no problems with the
networks at all, for many years.

So in a way I'm very curious what kind of problems you experience, and in
which way you find Windows works better for you, and in another way I just
feel like pointing out that at least I do not share your experience at all.
