Its called being flexible and the hallmark of every good systems manager. I fail to see why your friend claims its such a big hassle, when countless others can work in heterogenous environments just fine. I can see how it makes his live easier. Yes I can see that. I just can't see where it says that a good Systems Admin is supposed to take the easy road at the expense of integrity. --- Dave Saville wrote: > On Sun, 11 Feb 2007 21:06:28 -0800 (PST), Rick R. > wrote: > > >I think is says A LOT if even the folks at Netlabs > >think that OS/2 is not up to the job :-( > > They never said that - and I *did* see the smiley. > The reason is that Adrian > manages *nix farms for a living and it saves him > having to change gear every > time he needs to alter/fix something - especially if > he is doing it from his > work environment.
