My girlfriend has an iBook with Jaguar and that was what prompted me to get rid of Windows totally on my laptop. *anything* is better than Windows. I ran NetBSD for 4 years back in school and I must say I was impressed how things improved in the open source world in the 2 years I had Windows (too lazy to install something else)... Amazon actually just lowered their price for the iBook to some amazingly low price, hard to resist... =) -- andrew y ng <ayn@andrewng.com> http://andrewng.com fingerprint : 46a1 29ff 893a 0381 dc81 1e1e bed8 e882 9bfc 594c [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEABECAAYFAj3Jr9kACgkQvtjogpv8WUyitwCfdO0hQVwDwogCt1GIhJEqUsxQ IDkAoI0eSejX0jWE9Hdg9tX5LhZ/hZM2 =gA0p -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
