More like 12 months, or I wouldn't have mentioned it.

True, but you have to take into account *what's* different too. Using
Linux because it doesn't *look* like the competition can't be it, or am
I missing something?

No problem.

Better to have a setting which I can change so it does do the job
and which I can easily ignore otherwise, than a long list of nothing,
resulting in the software never doing more than 75% of what I need done.
Ubuntu gave me the distinct impression of being aimed at single-digit
IQs, but as you say, suits some people... ;-)))
