I would probably install windows 2000 (not to monstrous like winxp and not too buggy as win98), a free anti-virus scanner like avast! or AVG, AbiWord (and/or OpenOffice), Mozilla Firefox (stable version!), a nice free e-mail client for example FoxMail, thunderbird or maybe Sylpheed, a small simple firewall like Kerio Personal Firewall, AdAware, some erase-tempfiles-and-clean-registry utility, the glorious Miranda for instant messeging and Automatic Updates. Should last for pretty long.
Thats funny, SCO screwed by their biggest contrib.

and were it not for the dot-com boom, the web as we know it today would not exist.
Oh no! The web as we know it wouldn't exist. Imagine a web without ads, popups, internet communities and all the other things that makes internetuse more stupidifying than watching TV. Sniff.

So, I guess that this means that they have extended the number of toilets in New Zealand?
Solution: Stop using local user-accounts and distribute the rootpassword to the public. Simple!

In Soviet Russia UT2004 releases a demo of YOU!
In Soviet Russia the supercomputer owns a piece of YOU!
