Since adopting unix, many of the MS fans are far more aware of unix and it's roll in the industry.

There's a place for both, and the sooner we get off the smug "linux doesn't have this problem... so, ner!" attitudes the faster the industry can get on and evolve (I'm still waiting for the day a linux magazine manages to go one single issue without taking a swipe at Microsoft and actually getting down to something constructive).
Here Here- I totally agree.

We have Unix, Linux, Win and a few Macsfor page layout, oh and a couple of BSD based equilizers for the website in out network, and the two camps are very slowly starting to mellow to each other as they start learning about the other platforms.

ps. This is definately my last post - as if this continues I'm certain the mods will close the thread.
