Please reread Steve's response carefully. He did not flame. He was merely saying
that, in his
opinion, discussions of the merits of a particular OS were off-topic.
As for discussions of this tone, I've been on the 'Net for quite a few years and have
*never* seen
anything productive come out of this. I've seen bad tempers, hurt feelings, and
general
unpleasantness, but never anything productive. Please, everyone stay cool and let's
drop this.
Cheers,
