No stupid EULAs either - not for most programs anyway. Only downside is that it takes a little tinkering to get it to play nice with your hardware sometimes, but come Hardy Heron (8.04, will be released in April), it should be ready for most users.
(TBH, I don't think my mum could use it, so it's not ready for the primetime.)
(Random side note - it's so much easier typing on an English QWERTY keyboard than a French AZERTY!) |

What the virus did was it wouldn't let me login to my username and every time I reset my password, it got reset again right after I changed it (with the Tiger install disk). And I don't trust Windows updates. Even on Windows only machines. |
