One warning. If you start using a UNIX based operating system for any
length of time you will find yourself wondering why it isn't crashing
periodically. Do not be alarmed, there is also an MS crash simulator
that you can install which will randomly put of a simulated blue screen
of death allowing you to feel more at home.


Thanks for the reply. Fortunately, stability is not a big issue for
me using a fully updated and protected Win 2K. I can't remember the
last time I got a "blue screen". Just lucky I guess.
