LoL, I'm not going to bite. I've used Windows and I like it cause I'm
familiar with it, but I can see where Linux would be useful. Eh, but other
than programming Pic's and maybe running Pic development programs I don't
have much need for it. Then again, the computer will most likely go up on the
network as a print server in which case Linux could have its advantages. I'd
like to be able to boot it up and not worry about it again for a long time.
Any chance Win2k could do that? Oh yes, and it's a Pent133, 32mb of Ram.
Let's see what we can do with that....
