Maybe if I get her a shiny new DELL (*ack, cough, *hack*, sniff, wheeze). As for "no troubles with updating", that's all relative. If I were using a BSD kernel from 1999, nobody would talk to me around here ;-). I also appreciate FreeBSD's rich built-in utility set, and dislike entering my passcode twice to switch users in W2K (which, incidentally, isn't necessary on XP, feature, bug, what have you....).
