Yep. That was exactly my way of thinking as I bought the RaQ. But my 
capabalities have advanced. The GUI is fine for the 'lazy' admin, but as 
Cobalt is now part of SUN I notice a delay in responsiveness. The fact 
that it took that long to fix apache is only one indicator.

ALso the abscence of Cobalt people here and the fact that many 
announcements are now on the SUN web-based forums and not here anymore 
have caused me to rethink my possibilities.

I am no longer frightened of shell commands so I evaluated OpenBSD and 
was impressed. If I find a way to get it running on the RaQ I will do 
it. I will still have the good looking blue machine in my cabinet but I 
will feel more comfortable ;-)

I always installed the patches as soon as they were available. But the 
fact that there is still no official way of getting PHP 4.2.1 or even 
PHP 4.1.x from Cobalt is surely driving customers away from using 
webspace on RaQs. A big thankyou though to Taco Scargo and his friends 
that continue to help out by offering packages on pkgmaster.com.

If SUN wants to keep me from thinking of moving away they should take 
our concerns more serious. But that is just the opinion of a litle man 
that tries to keep his services up and running.
