Hey J. Rafael,
Not only have you just hijacked this threat but you have also committed the heinous crime of posting HTML email to this list.
tsk, tsk.
While we haven't officially made a declaration that all users of this mailing list should refrain from sending mail with markup included, it is understood that this is frowned upon.
<shrug>
I don't know... it seems we are going through a period of time where there seems to be a large number of people unhappy with this mailing list and its members. Guess I'll have to put on my President hat and give everyone the CLUG Netiquette (ooh, yes, I said Netiquette).

So, really, I think there's two points to be made here: one about (against?) SATA, and one about Windows installs.
My two cents is that I don't think anyone ever said a Windows install was easy -- just pretty. ;-) But you're right -- one of the big MS draws is supposed to be hardware support. If the install process is going to be the same trouble as a Linux install using the same hardware, well, why even bother? ;-)

Athlon 64 3500+, SATA Drives, etc.
The boxes don't have floppies, because we won't need them.
So I'm installing XP, and it doesn't have a driver for SATA.
and can I load it from a cdrom? NO, of course not...
This is Windows XP 64bit edition. Bleeding edge MS code. And it can't be installed on a legacy-free system.
But thankfully, Moms and pops all over the world find that Windows is far easier to install.?!?!?!?
I haven't heard that in a while, and now I see why.
