Subject: Re: 17.383 anti-Irish et al. computing
For many years now, I've been advising faculty thus:
1. Adopt Unicode.
2. If you have friends and colleagues who won't adopt Unicode, then get new
friends and colleagues.
Since neither MS nor Apple sells any operating system without Unicode
support any more, it's just a matter of time, and we've based all our
projects on Unicode for several years. We just ignore complaints from
diehard Netscape 4 or Win98 users.
Cheers,
Martin
