Ahh yes, the grub password problem.. Well, here is what I would strongly recommend:
When Linux was first coming from the womb, the *BSD folks were embroiled in a lawsuit regarding AT&T code (IIRC). The uncertainty of the *BSD code's 'freeness' & future along with the timing of Linux's initial release were perfect for Linux.
Owww! Lucky you! Your first virgin install of OpenBSD may take a try or two, but the sheer joy and sanity of the system once you're done will be worth every moment.
So there I was at a Halloween party. This woman dressed up as a giant insect walks up. I realise she has a Microsoft logo on the chest of her costume.
I was hooked.
"So," she asked "does me being a Microsoft Bug make your Big Worm want to come out and play?" I was flabbergasted.. There I was being asked this by the woman of my dreams and I was wearing a Tequila Bottle costume...
MMmmm... salmonella...
Am I supposed to leave a piece of raw meat on this all day until I start it up when I leave work? I really don't see the point.
Quit these inane April Fool's stories. I might have to actually work today..
anandtech has a mirror . Don't give me karma, just trying to help out the community.. or something like that.

who they be?
Tony Iommi, 'Geezer' Butler and (forgot name) Ward played with Ozzy year ago in a band called Black Sabbath. You may have heard of them..
It's all a ploy to get another 4 or 5 bucks a month out of cell users that want to make their number(s) unlisted.
