I do my emailing from FreeBSD; but I empathize with any Windows user's fear of
patching/updating. I updated my Win2K with a "critical update" yesterday
using Microsoft's online updating utility (no, not from an email link!); and
it trashed the OS. The repair utilities on the installation CD have been
useless. I now have to find the time to reinstall.
I spent the night reviewing the list of apps I can't replace in FreeBSD. The
list keeps getting smaller (along with the motivation to reinstall).

Hmm, never had any trouble with WinXP or Win98 using Windows Update
AFAICR. That said, I'm now running FBSD 5.1 alongside my Windows
box, the the Windows screen is *behind* me and to the right. As I'm not
much of a gamer, and my wife/kids have XP in the living room, I've already
succumbed to the switch, and think I'm gonna like it.
