Simson Garfinkel, Daniel Weise, Steven Strassmann (eds.): The Unix-Haters Handbook (1994)

4 October 2013, dusan

This book is for all people who are forced to use UNIX. It is a humorous book–pure entertainment–that maintains that UNIX is a computer virus with a user interface. It features letters from the thousands posted on the Internet’s “UNIX-Haters” mailing list. It is not a computer handbook, tutorial, or reference. It is a self-help book that will let readers know they are not alone.
