The plan someday (and I do mean someday) is to do a show on ACB radio. Now, by the time I get around to moving forward on that agenda, my linux awareness / linux skills will, in all probability, be at the point where using the linux box would be a viable option, not to mention that its no doubt the more desirable option for the reason you stated. I don't need to be sold on the stability of linux; having only rebooted my machine once since late september; and that only having been done because I couldn't remember the "service vsftpd restart" command after having made necessary modifications to my vsftpd.conf file, <smile>!
