C'mon David, even you must have had a chuckle at that! :-D

Not taking any sides in this dispute but still hurting from the several
passes of re-ripping my DVD collection to my Linux server that kept
trashing
data drives irrecoverably over a period of time which turned out to be the
crappy implementation of multiple hard disc support by firewire which still
seems to exist to this day - I borrowed a Mac Mini and tried OSX as my
"server" platform and never looked back. (Mainly because if I did
look back
I might see the guy whose Mac Mini I still have shaking his fist at me
wanting it back.) ;-)

[Mind you, Windows also b*ggers up external firewire drives too so it can
stop looking smug. ;-) ]
