Hi Fred:

<snip> 
 And yet, for almost all of what I need to do, with the 
exception of a couple of games, I use Debian, and need nothing more.



Ahhhh, yes, "Need". There is that. If we only drove what we need, there would be no Mercedes or Lexus on the road. Not to intimate that anything M$ puts out is on par with either of those marques, but you get my drift. After driving Dallas streets for a while, you can't help but profile people based on their rides. Ditto with their choice of O/S.

I am like the Dilbert character in overalls and a beard, flipping him a quarter and saying, "Go buy yourself a real computer!". I don't need that stuff either but I'll bet I make a lot of money from those who do.

Fred

ps - My ride is a Dodge pickup. I "need" it to haul horse food occasionally, like today.
 Utilitarian, powerful, not beautiful but not ugly... a lot like Suse.
