Every day is a new learning experience for me, I have only been running the newer versions of Linux for about 8 months (trials of mandrake, gentoo, Debian, Fedora Core 2/3, FreeBSD(too full of cracker tools), but my experience with computers/networking goes back into the early 80's, and the original experience of early Linux kind of turned me off of Linux for 10 years. GUI's are nice, easy to play with, and lots easier to setup networking/firewalls/playgrounds in. Linux has finally come of age! Maturing nicely, and is the upcoming OS of choise in a lot of areas.
So Fedora Core 3 score-1 Windoze score-0
But this is being written on an XP computer running Thunderbird--so I am NOT completely weaned off of XP yet--old habits die hard!
My Linux Webserver is running 2.6.9-1.681 kernel nicely.
Yum nightly updates is enabled, and so far the world is all Christmas Cheer, hackers are kept away, and I have settled on using Fedora Core 3.

Mathew, Steve,
Thanks for your replies. I am not at all offended or anything by asking if I rebooted. You see, I work as IT professional (MS-Windows) and usually that is my first question, too. :-)
