No, not ignored. But I may have left out that I wish to use Time Machine for
backups. Alas, I don't know if Apple is making TM open source yet.
If so, I'd definitely consider a tiny Linux box. My use of a hosting service
has kept my Linux hacks up well enough so that admin overhead would not be too
great.
It was interesting to watch the majority of Sun engineering and research move
to OSX. They grew weary of admin being so intrusive, and OSX provided unix
underneath.
So I'm not being a fan boy, just lazy. And the Mac mini is a nifty box, and
used a lot at the complex, so I wouldn't mind figuring out how it works.
Hmm. I wonder if google will ever make Linux easy to use and have a ton of
nifty software?
