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?
