He was wrong on every point of mac machines.  Just like that guy said its
impossible to find a replacement video card for a Mac II and I gave him
atleast 20 that he could buy.  :)

Tons of people agree with me.  If a devolper doesn't release the source to
an app, its obviously code not to be proud of.  :)  Any linux binary that I
see fit to run under MK Linux I run.

Best PC OS for Install: RedHat 5 (Redhat 4.02 is more stable)
Best PC OS for networks: NetBSD
Best PC OS for high end junk: Solaris

Best MAC OS for Install: MK Linux, NetBSD (all are the same)
Best MAC OS for high end junk: MK68
Best MAC OS for networks: NetBSD (jokes call it MacBSD.)

There.  :)

Btw, Mel isn't here for 3 weeks.  Lets talk about USB.  :)  This is our
time where he can't tell us is useless...  :)

I act pretty well for most the people my age...  :)  Travis wasn't in
Ti-hardware for 4 days before he was flammed off...  :)
