Mark actually gets his hands dirty running the systems (on C7). He has a
valid point which worries me - Red Hat's gradual imitation of Micro
$oft's aversion to ordinary people understanding and controlling their
systems.

Luckily some of us remain on C6 because we love simplicity and
stability. When C6 expires some will migrate to BSD rather than face
C7's persistent difficulties and confusion.
