Kawecki you make some good points but you would be more effective if it weren't for your habit of jumping into every thread even remotely connected with a computer problem and going into your anti-Microsoft tirades. Linux is a fine OS but unfortunately too many of its adherents exhibit such a sense of contempt for anyone who hasn't drunk the KoolAid that their enthusiasm smacks more of religious zealotry than reason at times. Relax. If Linux is indeed so superior then it will triumph in the end. If not, well, you can have the satisfaction of being borne up in the rapture while the rest of us are lost in the Windows tribulation.

"Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance." - H. L. Mencken
