Some users swear by Aqua interface of MacOS X, others proclaim the desktop-readiness of Linux, the polished presence of Windows XP, or expound upon the stately Solaris as the ultimate operating system. All of these users are wimps.

Hah! My day job is a mainframe programmer for the State of Alaska. Using OS/390, with TSO, Roscoe, and CICS as the interfaces. Heavy use of Cobol and Natural for application development. As of this year, my department is the ONLY department that uses the mainframe, every other department got a brain and switched to more cost saving solution, aka NON-MAINFRAME!
So, our department is planning on phasing out the mainframe junk in 5 years and move on to better things. We are currently in the transistion stage, converting all of our cobol and natural code/programs to dotnet.. yay.
Oh well. As I was reading more and more of this post, I just started laughing. This is clearly a joke and it isnt even April Fool's Day yet!! hahaha, oh well. It was a great laugh.
Oh yay, Im first post! Or was at the time of typing this.. donno if it's true now..
