So at least you admit you are unfamiliar with Linux, and have no intention of changing that. Does this mean you'll stop with your un- and ill-informed pronouncements on the subject? -- Mark Warner MEPIS Linux Registered Linux User #415318 ....lose .inhibitions when replying

That's really a good joke :-) XP was a bloat in that times compared to NT4, but newer machines (my hardware is older as XP AT ALL, though :-|) makes XP bearable. Win7 and especially Vista is not there yet. Working on them seems/feels to me like working on an unaccelerated ATARI ST ;-) Candy GfX off course! But for what price, and time (slow)... even with ultra-new Hardware. [There was nothing in the last 10 years] -- Daniel Mandic
