Does anybody here use Unix? I use FreeBSD on one of my computers. I used to run Linux, but Linux isn't as stable as FreeBSD in my opinion.

RedHat 6.2 on my server, 7.1, and NT 4.0 for now, at home on two dev boxes that I wipe out and reinstall almost weekly :), 6.2 on three of the work servers, solaris on another and BSD on another.
Picture perfect penmanship here.

Ahh yes, forgot to mention the ubbdev.com server. Of course, with thsi much power we only needed a shared server. microsoft.com, tucows and CPAN are also on our box. Very fast. Just a thought

I have yet to take the plunge, I was gonna install Linux Mandrake 7.2, weas half way through the installation..and...baboom...power cut. So, I power up, Windows boots fine, I go into Partition Magic 6 Pro, try and merge the half created Linux Partition with one of the Windows ones...I get an error message... 'Cannot Proceed, There is an Error in the FAT Table' or something to that effect, needless to say, I wasn't exactly thrilled with this message, so, I completely powered down..God knows why, but, when i re-booted all was fine, to this day I have not found an explanation....anyways, someday soon I am gonna buy a second hand 4 gig hard drive and try again...but, not for a while
