This is the most sensible statement I've read all week.  So sensible, in
fact, that it bears repeating.

In our multi-platform product development environment we deal with no fewer
than 11 (Eleven) different hardware/OS platforms including DOS, OS/2 and
Netware on PC hardware in addition to the numerous UNIX platforms we support,
most of them running on non-Intel hardware.  They all have their pleasant
features and their infuriating misfeatures, but we manage to live with all of
them.
