Linux and data storage?

[Sina Bahram]

Hi Janina,

Please point out where I recommended the installation of, the use of, the
installing upon, or any other permutation of Windows? I said I was familiar
with a Windows tool, and in fact...if you refer to my post: I asked for the
linux equivalent: for Karen, and also for my own edification.

Please explain where I recommended Windows?

Take care,
Sina

Frankly, Sina, I really don't care whether you like my posts or not.

Point is, your advice isn't very good in this instance, to put it bluntly. 

Shell World already has all the tools shee needs. No need to go looking for
some application to install on some Windows machine.

There are times, Sinna, when bad help is less helpful than keeping quiet.
Frankly, I consider any advice that says "go get Windows" to be pretty bad
advice, especially on this list.

So, if you feel put upon by me, you should.
