TTYL Same opinion here Herbert. And my "family tech support" calls from family and friends have all but dried up since I started recommending same. Their machines "just work" now, and they never call, which is a wonderful thing. I like Linux, been using it for both home and work for years, as well as Solaris, HP-UX, etc... but in reality -- Mac OSX is the best "consumer Unix" ever created, so far.
