I am probably slightly biased. I am an old Unix hack who has learned Perl4
in the early 90's and was using it until 2019 when I was told that Perl
is not an approved language in the company and that I have to learn
Python. So I did. I was a VAX/VMS system admin and instructor from 1987 -
1996. After 1993 I was working for a SGI distributor, using Irix. I have
worked with HP-UX, AIX, AT&T Unix, Wyse Unix, SCO Unix and, eventually,
Linux, among other things. I might be slightly biased against Windows.
