RE: IBM just bought Red Hat?

I use Gmail and HATE the web interface. I use it on the road only because I don't want to load an email client on my laptop. The Gmail App is OK but the calendar is at best awful.

IF they would stop asking snowflakes what they want and as real business people what the user interface should look like, they might actually come up with something.

Try GMail... It's the best from what I've tried. Yes, it's a little different but I'd never go back to a PC client.

Personally I have a web interface to my mail but in my experience, web
interfaces SUCK for composition. My installed client is predictable,
tolerates disconnects and searches nearly 20GB of mail quickly no
matter how crappy my connection is.

I think a LOT of it is how (and how much) you use email.

Thunderbird is available, but who uses email clients these days?
It's
web
based for me for the past.. at least 10 years I would say.

Ubuntu is a great workstation. I'm replying from Ubuntu right now.
Great development workstation for IBM i.

RedHat has been there with IBM z for about 18 years. It has been
transformative for z ops.
