I don't know about Portugal, but everyone I know of around here uses Windows. If I wanted to get a job in IT*, I wouldn't have much of a choice. *Nobody would hire me, anyway. I'm always too young. Damn. I like the no-Microsoft rule… I don’t know about Portugal, but everyone I know of around here uses Windows. If I wanted to get a job in IT*, I wouldn’t have much of a choice.

Despite a few steps in the right direction most Portuguese companies still don't have a clue about technology and that if you specialize in hardware you're not a programmer. Most IT people are expected to do anything related to computers, networks, cellphones, photocopiers (it's true, happened to me today). I think this can only be solved with a new generation of business managers, and a new way of thinking about IT and technology in general. Keep up the good writing, cdaniel Hi,
