3. My Computer 's and OS 's
At home my operating system of choice from June 1996 is Linux.
My personal workstation is a Pentium 75
with 24 megabytes of RAM, 2 meg video card, 13 Gig Hard Drive (IBM, MAXTOR & FIJUSTU) and
iomega Zipplus ZIP drive running
RedHat 4.2 Linux. I always liked Unix as an Operating System because
it is designed for Engineers, it has collection of small tools which can be
interlinked to do a complex job. I think the idea of pipes is a break through in Operating System.
At work though I work on DOS / WIN95, I have made it usable by creating an Unix like environment. I run the DJGPP suite, it contains all unix command normally used . There is also U/WIN created by David Korn, author of the KornShell at AT&T Lab. Portions of the code, documentation and installation software is developed by Wipro, Ltd, India. DJGPP uses bash (bourne again sh) shell, U/WIN uses Korn shell.

4. Internet
I often use google as my Internet
search engine. If I am looking for a file on FTP Sites,I use FTPsearch.
Previously I was using Archie, which is slow and cumbersome, but the only way
if you have just e-mail.
