;=) you do not need it dear zentara, I hope here we are free to express our opinion..

Indeed as stated by Athanasius Strawberry Perl come very handy if you need or want to work with not-freedom-driven OS.

In real life there are a lot of systems (clients and servers) where i put my own usb key with portable perl by strawberry. I use in conjuction with UnxTools and i pipe perl's program to grep and tail for my pleasure.

Strawberry also come with an uptodate version of make and dmake. no pain with cpan installation.
