A rather similar idea in physics (and in science in general) is expressed like this: "If someone claims that he understands some particular theory, it means he became used to it". I understand (no pun intended) what you mean, and indeed, that's very often the case, but now always. I would not fit completely in your, Mark, formula (nor would some other people on this list, I suspect). I've used variety of systems myself at different levels (from a user to a sysadmin). The system I used the most (as a user and admin) is probably Windows. The system I would prefer as an admin is FreeBSD. The system I use for various tasks depends on the particular task: I usually choose a system that is the most suitable for that task (Mac OS-X included). Igor
