Just Linux.  I find it to be a horrible replacement for what is here.  Nick 
will agree with me.   I HATE jumping thru hoops to just read a friggin' SD 
card or an external drive because of a permission bullshit issue.

Yes, but the doors everyone bitches and moans about NOT working are made for 
DOS and ment to run on DOS based.  It's like be trying to shove a Chevy 
engine in a Ford.  Could it be done?  Yes, but why would I put shit into a 
Ford?

If DOS could task 10 windows at a time, sure I would.  DV isn't gonna cut it. 
OS/2 doesn't have the applications to run in the background to off-set the 
ones written for windows.   ArcaOS is a nice upgrade, but it doesn't cut it.
