Please don't spoil Lawrence's rants with facts and common sense! I've yet to see a Windows critcism from him which is *not* bogus. Strange that he apparently feels so insecure about Linux, that he 'needs' to attack Windows for no good reason. We Windows users don't feel the need to do the opposite, mainly because, as they say, "Windows isn't a religion.". Why he just can't be happy with what he has, is beyond me. > A valuable place to gather intelligence, is the Reliability Monitor, > which keeps certain kinds of failures in a chart form.

There you go again, being sensible! What's wrong with some nice FUD, urban legends, innuendo, fear mongering, etc.!? But excuse me, I've got to rush. Got to install a Windows system and as Lawrence says that "needs to reboot about five times", I need to get cracking. N.B. This post is brought to you by courtesy of vim, GNU and Cygwin.
