This list is actually the first place I read of widespread use of GCC

(specially since you seem to resort easily into insults).
This just underscores how completely uninformed you are. I work with a
large amount of hardware vendors. All of them now use gcc on windows
for firmware development. These companies used UNIX/Linux in the past
until it became so easy to use gcc on windows. It even integrates with
visual slick edit!!
One of my colleagues is a religious emacs user. He uses it for
everything. He dropped Linux on the floor in favor of windows because
now he can use word and excel to import/export stuff into emacs.
I can go on for a while.
I can insult you some more but I am not sure you'd get it.
What's funny is that is not even an insult. He is calling it insulting,
and you are playfully pretending it is an insult... rather it is just
conversation. He is taking it as an insult.. every time we mention the
word 'slickedit' it's as if we are swearing or something. When a cult
member loses an argument about his cult and a fact is brought up such as
slickedit, they treat it as an insult because now you are providing
evidence that could hurt their cult.. so instead of attending the
evidence they instead divert the conversation elsewhere completely off
topic.. such as 'but that is an insult!' and 'but your mom isn't even
involved in this!' It is the openbsd Cliche again. It is a harping on
'truthful people are mean', instead of discussion.
I called this one out before..
Someone said a simple line.. like 'Did you?' and then someone took this
simple 'Did you' and turned it into an insult.
Did you?
Do you have turrets or aspergers or some other reason why you are
compelled to insult virtually everyone ?
Since when was 'did you' an insult?
