Thankfully I am.  I confess I don't understand how *nix people endure 
having to compile code instead of having a binary install.  To me it's 
like going to the garage to buy a new car, being shown the parts and the 
tool kit and being told to get on with it.  Perhaps it's a case of 
second class treatment for users of a second class OS?  Ducks and runs 
for cover :)
