These are all perception problems not real problems. Again, if one doesn't "need" flash one can do anything and everything on OpenBSD just fine. I am not claiming that OpenBSD should be used under all circumstances however making blanket statements that OpenBSD can't handle it is dumb.
Well, I agree up to 99%. I have been looking for a simple solution to remotely edit SQL database for years. Yes, solutions does exists, Open Office have db to, but none allow me to process, or paste multiple records at once for example.
The only solution I have is to use Access with the layer ODBC on Windows to do that very quickly And yes Access is strictly use as a GUI interface if you want to edit content of SQL database on remote servers and event if that's not as fast as it might be, doing 100K paste records in that SQL DB remotely works very well and no I can't do that with Open Office and I still haven't found something to do it that way yet. Open Office allow me to edit one records at a time. Fine for many cases, but not for all. Even on a MAC I do sadly use VMWare to run Windows and have Access there as I have no alternative. Call that sad and it is. But that's one case. Only one yes, but one case where I have no alternative, or find one yet and I sure have been looking for years.
All that said, for everything else yes I totally agree with you. I do not have any other case.
Best, Daniel
