Recently, The Biochemist featured an article in their CyberBiochemist section that discussed the choice of *nix-like operating system for bioinformatics applications. The original article may be found at

I responsed with a letter pointing out some points that I thought needed clarification, which sparked a reply from Richard Grant, the author of the article. Apparently my letter and Richard's response will be appearing in a future issue of The Biochemist, but you can see them now at

There has also been some follow-up discussion in the news-group bionet.software, including discussion of the place of Open Source software in the bioinformatics world.
