The conclusion?

My anecdotal evidence is ... worthless!!! <grin>

Say ... can you come over and get RedHat 6.0 working on my 486-66 machine?
I'd appreciate it.

Peace,

I can't resist replying to this.  Earlier, you say that
anecdotal evidence is worthless, and yet you use a personal
anecdote to dismiss Linux.

I have my own anecdotes:

Linux installed with no problems on my home machine.  And
the upgrade from RH 5.1 to 6.1 was even easier.

I have a friend who's one of the biggest MS bigots I know.
When he wanted to install a firewall to protect his home
LAN, guess what he used?  Linux.

Cheers!  Hans
