A clarification is in order.  I posted a followup regarding buying unix
for the home.  I guess I came of sounding like a total unix snob or
something.  This is not how i meant that responce to sound.  The poster
was saying that he used unix on the job and was thinking of getting unix
for the home, *but* didn't want a lot of sysadmin headaches and did not
want to have a lot of problems with dos apps that didn't work right.
Certainly normal desires.  Actually I lessened the degree of anxiety a
bit, I belive the idea was that he didn't want *any* problems as he had
enough of them at work.  So my advice was (heavy with sarcasm) just use
dos.  That is all I meant.  My sarcasm reflected or tried to imply that
his lack of desire to take risks was not in keeping with his stated 
abilities, job title etc.
