I think I actually might have preferred Pan previous to the 2006 rewrite,
but not enough to pin it. I'm running Debian unstable, and this is the
version that comes with it. It does what I need.


If I ever get around to building a couple of new computers, I might
give Linux a try and reload all the graphics and video software over
again.

The problem now is overwriting Windows on all the computers - don't
think I really want to do that - in particular in the middle of
several projects I've got going. But I am getting tired of the little
Windows glitches that keep cropping up even with XP Pro.

Plus I'm toying with the idea of getting a Mac for the graphics and
video stuff I've been doing - that's a maybe, but I'm being pushed in
that direction by some of my collegues and friends.

We'll see. :)
