Hello!
Very funny.
How about hardware that's discussed on a different list? It runs
software that's almost friendly. It also runs software that
communicates in "GRONK!" sounds. And it handles our credit cards
poorly using specific software that's eats up time on the big
box.......

By the way, you guys will never guess what's running about 75 Percent
of the worlds' banking. And that almost includes hardware.

Oh ok. I'll back you on that point. (though they were nice enough to
give some very fine hardware a few years ago...)
Remember, you go out of your way to break things...that sorta
disqualifies you from complaining that things are broken. ;)
True. YUM is an more just braindead than it is broken.
I can agree with that. One just can't get much better than "apt-get".

How much junk mail do they send after giving the hardware? ;)

I'd agree. While apt-get isn't my favourite of the package managers (does it support delta package updates yet?) I willl certainly prefer it to yum. (You should poke at alpine's APK if you like apt-get)

That is a really, really bad idea. Just FYI.

Linux VM? Let me guess..Red Hat Enterprise Linux on a Dell? (I hate Red Hat with a passion for commercialising linux...among other things they do.) Along with the fact most of their products are utter crap. I mean...YUM still can't search for packages while it's installing packages?... Can you GET more braindead?
I've seen better "enterprise" products come out of dumpsters.

Hello!
Being right is my job, Cory.
And as it happens, You're right. Red Hat only writes Linux that's not
on Intel. I certainly hope Joe you're not running RHEL in there.....

I dunno, while I prefer to run Solaris on servers, I make pretty good
money depending on Linux machines these days.

True. YUM is an more just braindead than it is broken.
