in reply to Short and easy way to write if...elsif syntax

There sure is more than one way to do it!

use strict;
use warnings;
$_ = 'foofum';
do{
    my $print_buffer = /linux/   ? 'This is a linux VM'
                     : /Windows/ ? 'This is a Windows VM'
                     :             'I have no idea what it is'
                     ;
    print $print_buffer, "\n";
};
