- Great words of wisdom from AT&T. (A company that is staking alot behind
- the future success of Unix) If we'd get off our high horses and do some
- real solution finding maybe Unix might stand a chance. But the problem
- seems to be that Unix will be religated to the 'elite' brainiacs of the
- industry who don't realize nor remember what it is like to be a newcomer
- to the computer. .:. OS's like Windows NT regardless of how much this
- elite class snubs it, will ultimatly win out, because the 'elite' are the
- minority!
