It's comments like this that divide the men from the boys, as an external consultant, I spend 70% plus of my time fixing problems with Microsoft installations (not originally installed by me), we have found the majority of problems are instability, un-documented bugs, poor workrounds, software/hardware incompatabilities, upgrade issues left right and centre, and although there are problems with Linux abd Novell, they are no where near the percentage of Microsofts ( even when used with the recomended hardware lists supplied from Microsoft itself). It is good to see an alternative OS for both the server and desktop that can now truly challenge Microsofts offerings big-time.
