I mastered windows 95 in 1 Really? You mean you completely memorized all the important Win95 registry keys in one day? This is funny. You know, if you really wanted you could just host your site on Win95. Or whatever Win with IIS. But it looks to me like you're unhappy because you're encountering the "real" way this is done for the first time, and it's more complicated than Windows. Well, yes it is, but it's also the right way to do it, without cutting corners. In the end you'll be able to control the system much better, which should be of interest to you if you're writing programming for the web. If you want a more powerful system, then take the time to learn it (talking about much more than a week). If you just need to keep working and don't have the time to learn something new, then stick with what you know. - jt
