   Hey August!   
      
   > I haven't been following Kreb's reports religiously.   
      
   To be honest, I don't even know who Kreb is, nevermind his reports.  The name   
   sounds vaguely familiar from somewhere.

   I've been using linux for around 30 years now.  My first was a 486 that   
   originally booted PC-DOS.  Every machine after that was pure linux, x86_64 for   
   about 20 years now.  For all that time there was never a need for anything   
   branded MS.  In all that time I never once ran across a ms-win machine that   
   could do anything I couldn't do better using linux.  As long as there is a   
   working gcc compiler and a linux terminal I am more than content.
