I think the idea of the verbal exercise was to point out that from a "non tech" perspective - without the know-how or desire to improve the performance of the box, that XP ran better than MDK - but this is a rather unfair statement because 1.) only one linux distro was tested, 2.) no time appears to have been spent in seeking out why performance was degraded so badly upon first installation and 3.) he didn't try BeOS or OS/2 (g) -- Sun, 2 Mar 2003 09:05:00 +1100 9:05am up 3 days, 23:08, 4 users, load average: 0.46, 0.53, 0.51 ------------------------------------------------------------------ | __ __ | kuhn media australia | | / ,, /| |'-. | http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |=================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |'. `\ | | | icq: 5483808 | | ;"""/ / | | | | | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| | mobile: 0410-728-389 | | ' `-`' " " | Berkeley, New South Wales, AU | ------------------------------------------------------------------ linux user:267497 * RH 8.0 * PC/Mac/Linux/Networking/Consulting ------------------------------------------------------------------ Vax Vobiscum
