If you are that taken back - you certainly don't need the issues of a project that does not deliver on it's promises. On the other hand - feel free to use Microsoft's products because we all know that they tend to keep promises AND, as a extra bonus, create an ultra secure OS that never fails. And as an extra extra bonus - you have the luxury of paying a poop-load for all that ... and more! So - with such an obvious choice (as mentioned above), you really don't need the failed promises that this project routinely makes to you, Nikolas Britton! -- Best regards, Chris Everything is revealed to he who turns over enough stones.
