Anyone else NOT getting Vista now? I'm sorry, but if they do that, I'll pirate copies just to smash, burn, and run over them.

I always thought they were trying to get closer to AOHell's cartoonish appearance. I figured that's why the later versions of MSN Explorer looked the way they do

Yeah. You and the 173 other people on the planet who try to use Linux think the same thing.

I wanted to try linix on my second drive but that recently kicked the bucket. With no funds for another I have to stick with this. Then maybe I'll get a RAID SATA drive.

I like linux, I just cant do shit with it yet. I can fuck around here and there but nothing development wize. Having windows run the show is a bad idea... if one car company ran the industry youd comply to what they felt was right or you would walk.

Learning the nix terminal commands is the key really. This book ( http://www.wiley.com/WileyCDA/WileyTitl ... 79495.html ) is very good. I kept getting it from the library until I actually bought it.
