Piers Anthony switches to Linux?
I just finished a book by one of my favorite light fantasy authors Piers Anthony.
And noticed in the authors note Piers wrote:
"I had decided to change from the Windows computer operating system to Linux,"
Oh no! What was I going to do? Stop reading his books out of company loyalty? Call him and explain his folly?
Then i read about his experiences trying to write his book "Up in a Heaval" on Linux -and his subsequent return to Windows. Thankfully order is now restored in the universe!-and i was able to have a chuckle or two at Piers expense:
His high-lights included:
- Wasn't able to find anybody to sell/service a computer with Linux
- The computer wouldn't talk to his printer.
- 5 MINUTES to load his 100,000 word novel!
- After the novel was loaded the first touch of a key locked the computer up.
