So if Linux is your choice - great, enjoy it but don't try to convince
us it's problem free - it isn't. It is also one of the most hacked
server OSes in the world too. Most of those big name hacks we've heard
about this past year were running Linux front-ends. Not exactly a
secure system but yes, it is less expensive up-front but over time, you
pay.

FUD noted

Have no idea what FUD means in this context so feel free to spell it
out. The online definitions I found don't seem to apply - good or bad.

FUD = 'Fear' 'Uncertainty' and 'Doubt'. Generally does not refer to the
content itself, but in the effect it creates.

you said in reference to linux, things like 'it is also one of the most
hacked server OSes in the world' which is TOTAL ****. You must have
read that on a pro-Micro-shaft forum from a Micro-shaft shill, or from
intentional anti-Linux "FUD" literature from the early noughties.

There was a LOT of this kind of crap, back then. It's still
circulating, too, and NONE of that **** is true. It's all Micro-****
spreading the 'Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt' about Linux because they
CANNOT! PRODUCE! A! BETTER! OPERATING! SYSTEM! THEMSELVES!

only NOW it's 'Embrace, Extend, Extinguish' by attempting to integrate
bash with Win-10-nic. Same thing. Absorb it and add its uniqueness to
their own, like "the Borg", and then FORCE everyone into THEIR solution,
LOCK THEM IN, and *even* make them AFRAID to *CHANGE* (that thing so
embraced by MS shills and political liberals these days) to something
that's TRULY BETTER.
