Suspicious Dish posted:Only an idiot would think that switching to Linux would lower costs. There were a few projects at Red Hat that started out with the initiative of "lower the price of a starting Linux sysadmin" to compete with Windows. They pivoted away from that goal, unfortunately. the only company that could possibly make a Linux compete w/ windows TCO has abandoned the concept.

Although there are those who think the systemd debate has been decided in favor of systemd, the exceedingly loud protests on message boards, forums, and the posts I wrote over the past two weeks would indicate otherwise.

My mother-in-law needed a computer for internet browsing and storing pictures of grandchildren, so I assembled one for her and put Mint 17 on it, because gently caress paying for an OS for that. My overall command of Linux is probably about a 2 out of 10, but I have run a few different flavors on my laptop over the last few years, and will be changing it to Mint 17 as well to help build familiarity with the OS for when she has questions. My goal is that being her tech support will give me the kick in the rear end I need to start to really put more effort into learning Linux. The one hiccup with her computer requirements is that she is also an avid sewer, and the machine that she has accepts a proprietary USB storage card that uses its own software to interface with the PC. The software is Brother PED-Basic (version 1.07, if you're curious). WINE handles the software no problem because it is basically babbys first file-transfer program; however, the instructions for installing the USB dongle is to plug it in on your Windows system and wait for it to recognize the device, then point it towards the driver on the CD. The problem is that WINE doesn't care to acknowledge the newly plugged in USB device and installing the proper driver. My skill set may be limited, but it doesn't seem like it should be too big of a stretch to have WINE recognize that a USB device is connected and needs a driver associated with it (it is a glorified thumbdrive). Am I assuming that this is much more simple than really will be, or is it achievable with a little bit of goon assistance?
