Would you settle for longish complaint?

I think there's a bit of a misapplied word (is that even acceptable English?). It sounds to me like you have Linux WORKING, just not completely configured for your environment. No OS is going to be exactly how you want it out of the box, Linux maybe less so than others.

Mark Haney seems to have a broad definition of "working".
For most of us, "working" means more than booting.

For Mike Flannigan, "working" seems to mean do what I want and expect.

To be fair, I expect that Mark Haney's definition
probably isn't quite as broad as suggested.
To me, running in a non-bug-report-worthy way would
still not be good enough to say it's working for me.
