You don't "need" any OS. You can do just fine without an operating system,
or a computer for that matter, at all.
I don't "need" Linux (well, perhaps it's more of a psychological addiction,
than a physical one...).
You "liking" or "not liking" Windows NT has nothing to do with it.
And, actually, Scott, the group name "gnu.misc.discuss" is all about
"My OS is better than yours". And I'm getting this cruft out of
comp.unix.wizards and comp.unix.misc, because it's not relvant in the least.
