Why? Cause we're nerds damnit! I have the netgear router and it has the ability to filter access based on IP address, so if kid A has a computer 192.168.0.100 and kid B has 192.168.0.101 then I can give them different access and different times to log on. It even allows port blocking on a day/time basis and can email me when someone goes soemwhere they shouldn't. God, i want to have kids just so i can use these features!
YankeeInExile shows exactly the kind of thing that is going on in the "why use one OS over another". While most people say that they won't switch to linux because it has a steep learning curve, he is the *example* showing that any new OS have a learning curve. We (people who use Windows) all think/feel that windows is pretty easy to get around in. But to someone who is unfamiliar with it it would obviously be difficult for.
I think what it boils down to is that we should all try out different the OS's (MS, Linux, Apple) and find one that suits us. Unfortunately most people don't have the cash to try MS and Apple at the same time, but at least they could try Linux! So just give it a try, and know that *it will* be difficult at first. But there is a huge community out there (and in here) who are more than willing to help!

The real question is where is this video on YouTube?

Using the latitude and longitude garnered from wikipedia, and terraserver, we can clearly see that this place is an airport. Area 51
Now if I only knew how to compile and install it... :/
