I can keep them now, my purpose in getting under your skin...Well not getting under your skin, but just pushing enough buttons to get a reaction out of you are done. Sorry I get bored easy and getting a reaction out of people is fun to me.

Now, as for not running anti virii, that I actually agree with, it can work easy. BUT, to me, a user is a problem, most really are not smart enough to NOT open "****MyPCinTheAss.exe" because they usually think it is real mail from a friend.

I have no idea where you work durring the day but it is NOT easy keeping users at bay when they think the "**** my PC" executable is really a vacation for them and a loved one. Which if they worked for me it WOULD be a vacation because I'd fire the dumb ass.

And you working on Irix, man you cannot deny that Solaris RULES. If I was to set up a dream network, solaris would be in it, so would BSD, Windows, DOS and Macs, I like to play. I think the major problem Windows has is the fact that they really don't seem to care at all about the people they sell too.

As for facts, considering I'm a college student who was kicked out of high school, had detention daily, been suspended, was told I would be nothing by alot of people, and got my first computer 3 years ago, I think Im doing very good.

I know people who have had computers for YEARS more than me, and I still know more than them. I guess getting grounded that summer really was a good thing. I learned quickly and had the urges to keep exploring my lil Windows 95 box untill that got boring and I moved onto the internet, which was like a winning hand when I could explore even more.

Within a year of getting that computer I was learning about Linux and things like it. So umm, yea, I think I'm doing pretty good considering the things I did to learn this much. Not having even one manual makes something like a computer hard to comprehend but I did.

As for my actual facts though, I am an OS person. I own about 25 OSs and I can use all of them. I like testing out stability and security on them. Thats like a joy to me. I love pushing them untill they want to shove back. Windows XP is like the only version I pushed that didnt fall. 2000 is alright too but even it can fall down with a few placed pushes.

Linux on the other hand wouldnt push because I couldnt catch it to try. same with any *NIX OS I'v used. As for early versions of Windows....Heh, didnt need to push, it fell over walking on it's own. And DOS...Heh, I'll be nice. Even though I think DOS was better than Windows 95. Anyway, Im watching Halloween now, but I'd like to hear your opinion on OpenBSD, Trusted Solaris, Solaris, and SuSE Linux. I dot like redhat so I'll be nice again, but SuSE is my favorite Linux.

Also, what did you think of BeOS? I bought BeOS 5.0 pro and that was another OS I liked. Needed more tools to come with it by default but it was very good and stable for me.
