As to the general issue of MSWindows v. Unix, the Unix predominance for remailer software involves the fact that Unix is on the bulk of the machines connected to the Internet. It's more reliable for offering network services than MSWindows and it's got a cleaner architecture for reconfiguration. None of these explanations, however, means that there won't be more MSWindows that Unix boxes for a long time.
True. But I think the "balance of power" (actually, balance of numbers) will shift in the future. I make an analogy with manual transmission. For years, if you wanted to drive, manual transmission was the only choice. When automatic transmissions appeared, people scoffed. Now, automatic transmission dominate, and 20% of the driving population prefers manual transmission. For years, if you wanted internet connectivity, Unix was the only choice. When Warp, Windows NT, and Windows 95 (to be released ;) appeared, people scoffed. In the future, 20% of the internet connected will still prefer Unix for some reason. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBLu3w8sSF/V8IjI8hAQFdcwQAm00BIeO9ySbZSQAY8QMkF/TlSaR+FsL0 1Ekm27s5G/WzXrOaekMvy0WGGmYJ2/aoFBj2GSSgonxqB8PKTxZtSuSSWeMPszVa evpwrNi3IfcV1lpyBCPVYRmLO3x4zigMjOpG25Ji2DNfVp/Mrda9lNUYo9dodkiT o4rO3dtlZss= =+DOl -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
