Is Unix Worth it?

We have some rules here and this thread is violating several of them:
(3) Refrain from idle chatter that does not contribute to the knowledge base.
(5) Search the forums database with your keywords before asking.
(8) No BSD vs. Linux vs. Windows or similar threads.

Rule 3 alone is relaxed in the Unix Lounge area. The other rules apply to the entire site.

GuyWithAPen, at least read our FAQ section if you're not having luck with the search feature. There are many options avialable to you and they have been discussed dozens of times here. Summaries and links of these discussions are in our FAQ section.
