As a beginning programmer, I totally agree and identify with this…many is the time I’ve sat there thinking about why my code didn’t work, when I end up realizing there’s that errant little semicolon at the end of a line where it doesn’t belong.

>>”Cheap, fast, reliable. Choose two.”

Actually, while this quote is mostly true, and quite hilarious, on a more serious note, ‘Cheap, Fast and Reliable,’ are actually three adjectives I could easily use to describe Ubuntu Linux. But then again, I’m in love with Linux for the same reasons I despise Win(blows): Security, browser speed and source code availability. ;-) Granted, not all my favorite Windows games and programs have been recreated or ported to Linux–Sims 2 for example, but by Goddess I ADORE open-source programming, so if I want to play Sims 2–I just go play it on Playstation 2. ;-)
