I especially don't have any operating system problems. Software upgrades are a breeze; most of them are semi-automatic. I also don't worry about viruses or other malware. But I understand where you're coming from. I have to use (*ptui*) Windoze at work, too. I hate it. And at work we always have computer / OS / network / malware problems, despite a dedicated army of technicians and administrators whose job it is to keep those POS running.

If you are going to use beta versions of stuff, which admittedly don't have the bugs worked out, you really can't bitch. You take them for what they are. Well dude, that’s why its Beta.

A h*ll of a lot less money (even on credit) and it only take less than an hour to swap and reinstall the software. I've done it several times now with the computers I have here. Respects, Gwedd Comrade Mark,
