The last reason for me to use a MS-OS went out the
window was when my old flat-bed scanner died on me, it's
replacement works fine under GNU/Linux.

I didn't say that these are my PC in my previous post now did
I?

These installs were on boxes of two friends of mine, (and my
own box I used at the time) both running older MS-versions.
They used their boxes as dual-boot for a while. Don't know
what they are using now. As for me, the last MS-OS I used
was the 98'er version, have it still on a PII stored in the
attic.

Besides I build all my PC's myself, this latest box is a
liquid-cooled AMD 64bit dual-core, and instead spending
money on the OS, I could get me better hardware/RAM. I like
this option a lot. But if your happy with the choice you
made, this is fine by me. Also one can get PC's without a OS
if on looks for this is well. OK for about 200 Euros one can
get them.
