Account management is a breeze in linux as opposed to the nightmare of managing domains, AD and security principles (barf!).
If I understand you correctly, you are comparing adminstration of a single Linux box, against administration of a multi-domain Active Directory forest.
Of course this easier.
However, I doubt setting up a large Kerberos/LDAP based authentication infrastructure is any easier on Linux than on Windows 2000/2003.
Nero allows you while installing to create a local group with the priviliges needed to burn a cd. Members of this group do not need te be administrator.
With SUS you can use the automatic update feature of Windows 2k/XP/2k3 to download and install updates automaticly (or with your own approval for each update).
It's kind of the Microsoft equilevant of "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade".
It's based on the same protocol as Windows Update, so therefor it requires IIS.

second numpad on the left, instead of the keypad

Changing the Keyboard

· Score: 1
I think it could be usefull to have keyboard with two numpads instead of a keypad and a numpad. a keypad on the left would be usefull for right-hand mouse users.
Of course it would require two separate num-lock keys. Numbers could be entered with the right hand and cursor could be moved with the left hand. Or vice versa, if you prefer the other way around.
It could also be more fair to left-handed people. Today both keypad and numpad are on the right side of the keyboard.
It will of course take some time to get used to it : training separate hand movement, experimenting wich way it could be used best. However, for experience users it could be more productive; especially for spread-sheets, which require simultaneous use of both numpad and keypad. (This was the main avantage of the AT keyboard, remember)
It might require some adjustment of keyboard drivers. Probable, it would not be very hard to do so, like the change from XT to AT keyboard's. The changes would consist of an extra numlock key, and extra numeric keys. The current keyboard allready have an extra set of pointer keys.

Well, I agree. So if you do, you should think things out first.
Well, I tried to get to know Her.
I tried to be kind and considerative...

Answer: automate
Constant rebooting is annoying, but, when you automate it doesn't really matter much.
Also using the tools you have the right way, is more important than choosing the best tools.
If I understand you correctly, you are comparing adminstration of a single Linux box, against administration of a multi-domain Active Directory forest.
Of course this easier.

DOS before Netware (do they still do this?).
Novell Netware 6.0 does. (Using their own Novell DOS.)
I have not tried Netware 6.5 yet. But I have peeked at the documentation and I do not think they have changed it.
Netware 7.0 is announced be able to run on both the Netware kernel and on the Linux kernel.
My Asus (A7V333) board has an BIOS update program built into the BIOS.
Press Alt-F2 during the POST and insert a floppy with the BIOS image file. Updated my BIOS a few weeks a go.

You are implying that milions of different incompatible drivers for every type, mark, model, and revision of hardware makes the world a better place.
Honestly, I can't see how this philosophy saves time.
Actually, I believe that hardware should be engineerd in a way that it will work with generic drivers. This process is called standardisation.
NVidia is showing leadership with this development model.
A lot of people may think Linux is unreliable, because of the instability of binary drivers
A lot of people may think Windows is unreliable, because of the instability of binary drivers

Unix uses a system called reference counter. Each file which exists on disk has on reference counter.
Normal files, which have only one filename, have a reference count of 1.
File wich have multiple names, e.g. hard links have an increased reference count.
For example, if /bin/sh is hard link to /bin/bash . Both filenames point to the same file on disk, which haves a reference count of 2.
Another example: supose you run a program called /usr/sbin/named and you update the program with another version, you will have the following scenario:
Note: You cannot overwrite a running process program. But you can delete the filename from the directory.
DOS and NT do not allow this. (And sometimes even with files with the same name, but in an other directory!)

Just press option while booting and select the netboot icon.

For some reason this is not done by default...

They don't include monitors or (with one exception) floppy drives or modems. One PC has got a floppy drive and the other two do not.

Lilo is an application that builds an bootloader (also called lilo).
Lilo is a bootloader. A program started by the BIOS. An operating system, IMHO.
By contrast: loadlin is an application and a bootloader, which runs under DOS.
(you may want to subsitute 'application' for 'system utility')
