	I like it, though not as well as the Mac. But it learns good lessons  
from the Mac -- not the first being producing a really excellent  
installer on a live disc, just as Apple has done since the beginning  
of the Mac, I'm fairly certain.

	But when you can use real, certified (yet Free Software based) UNIX  
with the most beautiful interface of any OS and the best array of  
software compatibility of any OS on the best engineered hardware...  
well, how can one resist? :-P
