Re: Why PHP ? - devil's advocate

We (the open source community) give you SO many options, empower you with the ability to do it your way, the ability to create your own way. The thanks we get? "So many different versions around..." !!!! I'm (as most open source people are I'm sure) sick of hearing people complain about "this is hard", "why this way?", etc. - if you like Bill telling you how to run your operations then go out and spend the capital to run it his way. I on the other hand would rather have a rock solid solution created to fit our EXACT specifications - for free. --Joe On Mon, Dec 11, 2000 at 12:43:11AM +0100, Sander Pilon wrote: > > > > > > You can pay a company to get you precompiled binaries of the app. > > There are > > so many opensource companies out there. > > I'm not sure if you tried looking for one of those? :-) > > > > Saludos... :-) > > > > One of the primary (and recognised) problems of linux is that > the distribution of binaries is a nightmare.
