I don't know about you but I'm not a little kid who needs hir hand held
when se plays games. I'm not a beancounter who uses prepackaged applications
in Lotus. I'm not a writer like Jerry Pournelle who needs the world's greatest
word processor.

I'm a programmer. Without us, there will never be any applications. We need
to be able to do 10 or 15 things at once so we can get software out before
the press calls it vaporware. We need multitasking.

UNIX is our application.
