All I know is that his psychiatric health was in a dreadful state when he came into my care. The most serious case of computer induced PTSD I have ever encountered. Goodness only knows what happened to the poor little sod during his stint with IBM. Been abused as some sort of stress-relief punch-bag as far as I have been able to determine. A sad case, but I am glad to be able report that after sitting peacefully on my mantleshelf in a pure Linux environment for a number of months he is now well on the way to a full recovery. -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell
