Adding to what I already said. If Windows and Windows apps are supposedly superior for stablility and security, than why are developed nation's military using some form of UNIX for all their mission critical operations and not Windows? Why does NASA use some form of UNIX in their testing, rockets and space station and not Windows? Why do military aircraft and sea vessels use some form of UNIX and not Windows? Would you want to be under water in a sub controled by a Windows system or a UNIX/Unix-like system? Ask the US navy why they go under water with UNIX and not Windows. -- Stealth _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
