But you said "This isn't uniform as people like James Cameron definitely
know about the benefits of using linux."
I assume that if he knew of the benefits, he would know if it was better
or not. And, we've agreed it's quite likely that Cameron knew nothing
about linux being used by the company; he merely saw their work, and could
agree a decent deadline with them.
It's not that I'm being picky, though I'm certain drjolt is (grin), but
it's important to recognise that if you have ... overstated something on
the list, you should say so; or people will often think you exaggerate -
I know I have had to backtrack a few times!
