Wow! I really appreciate this posting. 

Normally I defrag my Windows junk every couple of months. Having just put 
Linux on my brand new Win98 box, I hadn't given a moment's thought to 
changing this practice, and fully expected to do a defrag sometime in the 
next month or so. Now I won't!

This seems so fundamental that I'm surprised I haven't seen words to this 
effect somewhere else. Or maybe you were just very, very (un)lucky.
