Microsoft is like a bowl o' bad spaghetti. Ya know it won't kill ya, but it sure as hell makes ya sick. Seems to me that these claims by Microsoft are out of fear. Linux is the ideal system for people who just wanna fool around, business, and many other types of users. Any windows product I, or anyone I've known, is extremely shakey. NT servers are not what Microsoft says they are (representing newspaper as the meatballs). They are unstable, unreliable, and uneconomical. I don't want to bring Windows 2000 into this, cause I dunno much about it yet, but I'll say it was not at all stable in its beta testing phase. Another ancient myth: Linux is not user friendly. Not true anymore. RedHat 6.0 has proven this theory wrong. A GUI almost undistinguishable from Windows. For all you Microsoft lovers, sorry if I've offended you, but it's my opinion. Microsoft has forgotten the meatballs, and replaced them with newspaper. The sauce is just crappy and tastes like doggy doo (reliability). Linux is your premium cuisine choice. 8-) I'm hungry. I'm gonna go get some spaghetti so this analogy will end. -Hex
