Some techs usually find it very hard to digest that doctors are good in tech areas, but what they should realise is that interdisciplinary sciences is a field by itself. For example in Rohan's case, bioinformatics, if he is really interested.
In my case I am interested in linux systems administration, not exactly into programming or anything. At the moment there is no profit motive as I am still in the learning phase. I do a lot of linux installs for free, especially for my students. Once I install with the multimedia pack they don't come back; they're quite happy with it. They don't even update, why bother they say !!
What got me into linux? Curiosity, and BSODs of Windows 98 SE. I started with RH 7.0 which I got with SAMs RH 7.0 Unleashed. It was a pain in the arse to use. Wasn't very difficult for me to see why people preferred the BSODs to it ! Then moved on to Mandrake (no Mandriva) 8.0 (box pack !), then 8.1, 8.2, then RH 8.0, and then no linux for a while. Finally got back into it with Novell making SUSE 9.3 professional free. That's where the open SUSE project started, and there's been no looking back since.
Like I said elsewhere, I am not anti Microsoft, I am anti Monopoly. I want people to have a REAL CHOICE, to decide and say,
YES I want this propriety software and I am ready to pay for it, even though Linux gives me similar software for free.
YES I want to have an antivirus running in the background, because it makes me feel GOOD, like SUPERMAN or ROBOCOP. I don't care if Linux doesn't need an antivirus.
