| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> Put FreeBSD on a mac and try to make it an open system again | 08:45 |

| floridagram-bot1 | <AdamOutler> Your daily dose of rage.. | 13:05 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> @AdamOutler, The whole thing was problematic from the start. The moved to Linux at first ad purely a cost cutting measure and not much more. They saw it only as a cheap alternative - which in my opinion is the worst reason to make the move. | 13:36 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> They went with a distribution that was poorly designed and failed to make any investments in staff and training. One day your machine ran Windows 7 and the next day poof. Linux | 13:38 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> Of course a lot of deep seeded resentment was planted. It did not make it any better when most upper level staff members continued to use Windows and MS Word for their work | 13:39 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> A lot of the issue is that when people are used to one system, replacing it with -any- system means they're going to complain that it doesn't work like the old one | 13:40 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> I had this issue trying to replace a point of sale system with something more up to date, the previous software was over 10 years old | 13:40 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <RazPi> You need training unfortunately, for anything | 13:40 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <KMyers> Hence why an alarming number of business still run XP | 13:45 |
| floridagram-bot1 | <Panzer_III> Makes sense. I can not imagine my reaction if the company suddenly switch to OSX for whatever reason. Even if it was a good one | 21:06 |
