    That makes the best description of windows vs unix usiability I think I've ever heard.

    Summed up as:
    Windows makes easy things easier and hard things harder. Where as Unix makes hard thigns easier but easy things harder.

    Windows low cost of entry expensave maintance, unix high cost of entry, lower maintance.

    Out of all these I think the only thing I have ever seen was the Teen/thugs, but they were removed from teh theater within about 5 minutes of the disruption. The only one you left off and the only one I have ever experienced was the tecnical difficulty. Once with a broken projector and once with a fire alarm. Both times the entire audiance got two free tickets good for any other feature.
