| >Linux kernel has SMP and good multi-core support, just for you to know. SMP is garbage and multi-core IS trash, whether you like it or not. >Linux kernel is not just for desktop, and being used in near real-time systems as well as mobile. It is the 'distribution' that makes the difference to their audience. yeah i mean for servers it's ok, on mobile it's a JVM anyway so it wouldn't matter what you swapped the kernel with. >Multi-user environments are very real in workplaces. At least one additional employee account is needed for using a system without modifying it. yeah not on the consumer desktop though, families don't need multi-user systems, laptops don't need them either. >There is no obligation to understand car design to drive them. But, what if one day you wanted to check the engine? That is at least you can't do with proprietary systems. maybe not but understanding a car design is possible and within reason, understanding 15 million lines of code on the other hand is not. also I don't recall when I said you could understand proprietary systems either? |
