You are right. One of the things that amazes me is that I can do math
computing on my just-out-of-the-closet 486 with 24 MB, a $2 linux distro
and Octave, and getting results on my just-out-of-the-trash 9 pin Cannon
dot matrix printer.

If I need windows, I can run Octave under Emacs, and not using the
resource-killer graphic environments.
