George: Perhaps you should READ posts next time... I said *EXCEPT FOR GRAPHICS ARTISTS AND CAD ENGINEERS* Get a clue. And if you had a clue, you'd also realize that I mentioned a set of standards, meaning that developers would only develop one port of an application. Any OS based on that set of standards could run that OS. You really need to get out off the Microsoft Zombie club once in a while.

As for e-mail, first I think people that want to read this thread should have the right to, rather than it being privatized to e-mail... And second I don't want someone who *thinks* they know-it-all to spam me. :)
