Aucbvax.5994 fa.info-vax utcsrgv!utzoo!decvax!ucbvax!info-vax Fri Jan 29 18:29:50 1982 Verrrry interesting... >From Feinler@SRI-NIC Fri Jan 29 17:06:26 1982 I have been catching up on several days (maybe weeks) of Info-vax messages which I read for informational purposes since I am not a programmer.

It appears that Feinler's Theory of Electronic Imprinting (which says that a user imprints like a duckling on the first editor to which he or she is exposed, and ever after defends it to the death or the distraction of his/her friends, whichever comes first) may also apply to operating systems. Hmmm.
