Hello, Arelor!

Replying to a message of Arelor to Sean Dennis:

Those programs, especially the first two, have excellent UIs and are easy to
use.

 A> That said, I'd rather use something Unixoid...

As time goes on, I have found more of what I want to use, especially for amateur
radio, is Windows-only.  Nothing against *NIX but I just don't have the desire
to tinker with things like I used to, especially after the heart attacks.

Truth be told, I absolutely LOVE FreeBSD.  Love it.  These days, ease of use
(damaged hands take away a lot of the fun of computing) is more important to me.

With my skill set, I can make Windows somewhat palatable.  In the case of my
Elitebook, it has the Windows keys in BIOS so W11 set itself up as a registered
copy of W11 Pro so I have a lot more options available to me.

It's using the best tool for what I need and for now, I hate to say, Windows is
doing it.

If they just had a modern browser for ArcaOS, I'd use it instead!

Later,
Sean
