The idea of having to reinstall Redscrew all over again is making me rethink Linux... I rethought Linux too. After years of fighting the idiosyncrasies of the various distributions, I went out and replaced my huge noisy Linux server with an iMac. At last, a Unix that runs on fully supported hardware with a GUI that doesn't suck. Last month, I spent a full day at a friend's place vainly trying to get Samba working under Mandrake. On the iMac, all I had to do was check one option box, and I was in the networking business. Oh, and I was able to burn a DVD first time, out of the box. Where's OS X/BSD been all my life? --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
