[*] At home:
-my brother is a computer wiz just like me but he doesn't want to move to *nix, he just respect it. -my sister love my *nix system but she doesn't know a thing about it. However, she's always swearing that Windows sucks and that she can't use another OS because she has project with the Windows Office programs. [*] With my Friends: -They know that *nix is more secure -They think I'm l33t because I'm on a weird machine they can't use (some can a little) -They like to learn so they are not completely in the dark -They always ask me to code some little programs/automations for them (then bother me with stupid bugs they find) [*] At university: -They are surprise that *nix still exist nowadays (without knowing that OSX is a unix-like OS) -They respect *nix because I'm doing all my stuff on it and a lot better then they can do -Some ask me why I'm using an Operating System like 'that' (pointing at the user interface)... I stay speachless because they don't even know what's the difference between a DE/WM & OS (I always laugh when I hear the Windows XP & Windows 7 startup sound) Add to this, I can rarely meet the 2-3 friends I know that uses *nix; and they also don't know a lot of stuff about it. Overall, I'm not going to spread the world about pink words about *nix; I don't care what people think! However, if they are interested and ask me about it I'll be glad to introduce them to it. |
