But when your employer provides tools, you really should use the

using GNU/Linux on the job. Say you use it to sharpen your skills. It
is, as everyone in business knows, much more difficult than Windoze.

Exactly how is it more difficult?  If you get a good distro with
decent tools you should be OK.  I have heard that distros like
Mandrake and Lindows are exceptionally easy for newbies and former
Windoze users to get going with.


Methinks you missed the facetious tone of Paul's last sentence.


Yup.  Sure did. :-)
