Bruce,
I forgot to add:
Please meet me outside the mall for a burger, a back row cinema viewing and a deep dicking in the back of my car. I really desire to feel your spotty cock inside my pulsating buttocks!

In all seriousness my life has been better since I converted (at least I sleep well now...), I did RedHat 7.3 last time around and I find it an acceptable alternative 99% of my workday.
*OMG* are they still around!?

How long will it last...I bet they will be gone in half a year or so (but I said this before - maybe they have too much money to burn before they die?)
WOW, so they offer SMB access now!! Oh wait, that is a screenshot of KDE 3.something - any recent Linux installation has that out of the box - I just checked and even mine has it (it works out of the box if you have samba+kde-base installed!)
They managed to compile wine as well!! Great! I mean, maybe my mother couldn't do that, but I bet Mandrake/Redhat/SuSE all have some easy 'install Wine' button somewhere around in their package tool.
Then I'm not even beginning to talk about their continuing blatant and I mean like *B-L-A-T-A-N-T* GPL violations.
As someone else remarked already: this company is a lawsuit (or rather: a lot of lawsuits) waiting to happen. If they don't die all by themselves first, that is - so far it looks like noone takes them seriously enough to even sue them.
