First off, the "get a life" is a quote from something that Alexander Skwar
wrote. I am trying to get a life myself, if someone else is inclined to do
so, then (s)he should initiate that her/himself.
I think it is very much a matter of hardware that determines what OS will
run best on it. My machines are very plain and standard, Win runs on it,
Linux runs on it. Win98 seems very messy to me in respect to
uninstalls. Win2000 has, as I wrote, not survived long. Linux works
wonderful. I always say that you have to use what you like and what you
can handle. I know someone who chugs along happily with a 286, dos 3.3 and
a matrix printer. No problem.

I say not yet, I say not no. But then, I hope I have made _my personal
point_ above. I do not speak for the others on the list, nor can I, nor do
I want to.
Blessings,
