This may be the primary factor behind her reluctance. If were to settle
down and stay with one installed OS for an extended period, she might be
more open to it. But it's so much fun!

Oh BTW, I'm writing this from SUSE 9.3 on a spare harddrive running in
my FreeBSD box. Too bad SUSE left out the kernel drivers for reading
UFS2; I'd be able to mount the BSD drive and copy over the configs. It's
when I mention to her such imperfections she rejoices in staying with
Windows. *sigh*
