 From the responses I get sometimes, I think some people must love 
tinkering with the OS instead of actually using it.  I admit, it 
looks like a field day for keyboard techies, and I'm not denying 
being one, but I just need it to work without having to build it 
myself.  I think there's just way too many distros of "Linux", 
anyway.  I quoted the word because everybody calls their version 
Linux but yet they want to claim that it's different and better than 
other distros. And, if they Are that different, then Linux will never 
evolve the way we would like it to.  My 2 cents.
