Haeh... maybe i will next time i feel like reinstalling, i suppose it's 
been out long enough by now.

I've been thinking more and more lately though, of moving to linux 
completly. I've played with it a couple of times, but never really 
gotten it to the point where i can do everything i want. Part of the 
problem is my video card (voodoo3) seems to suck under it, but i've been 
wanting a geforce about long enough to finally go out and get one. A 
better email client (eudora is wearing on me anyway), a better news 
reader (or get Xnews to work on linux more likely =) are most of what i 
have left to sort out. Assuming gimp works properly with a tablet under 
L, dont' need photoshop... maybe something for the scanner, and a url-
manager. Oh, and something to replace Thumbs+ ... that will be hard to 
do.

Oh... i should stop rambling. Just thinking over loose ends =)
