I run linux and freebsd on my personal and work computer(s). but that's my
personal choice, It does everything I want so why not :) (beside the
neighborhood have stopped calling me for help now since I just replies that I
haven't touched windows in ages so I can't help them with their tidious
problems ;)
seriosly, ever considered putting up a old computer for test-purposes? like a
pentium 200? goes for nothing on the second hand marked.

total sum? you mean, all bugs and security flaws gathering in one box?
Reminds me of the insurance company that charge double if you run windows on
the servers cause it's more prone to fail :)

Try FreeBSD, it's not linux but it beats the crap out of most linux distros
in ease to install. ofcourse redhat 7, openlinux and such is real easy but
freebsd installs never fails unless your harddrive has the surface of the
moon.
