You may be right about the widgets. Personally except for the 64 bit compatibility I have no reason to run 10.4 at this time. Also being a avid subscriber to 2600 and the hacking community I've already seen some pro-to type development in Java and Apple multi media access that would raise major concerns. Me thinks Apple is going too fast in modifying the BSD kernel the way they are doing.
Still, I really like the hardware but would have no qualm about switching over to Linux which I already run on a iMac G3 DV 400 and runs vastly superior to OS 9 or OS X on it.

This may be a little off topic. But I read in Mac world recently that Linux actually ranks lower than Windows as far as security. I admit that I am just a computer novice, but I was pretty surprised to read that. As an avid Linux user, does that sound right to you? I have been wondering about it for a while now.
Thanks,
Kevin
