Well you have a point and my love for unix seems to get me going 
sometimes.  But with my experiences with the ntservers (im not even going 
to mention Win95) its junk (reasons: dns works 1/4th of the time, RAS 
cant do ppp without errors & timeouts, and the memory management yeck) so 
if i offened any of you 'Windowers' im sorry (btw mabey he programmed 
msbasic with 8 bit dips beacouse he is a dip? j/k ;)
