	Ha! Even a full new dist wouldn't do this!  Maybe a 
	new distribution plus an additional $100 billion in
	stock, yeah.  

	What I'd like to see happen is to wrap the best of
	both world into one bundle.

	That's as far as operating systems go.  Most of my
	off-work hours are in the app that I've been working
	on since late 1996... Well, the app plus the free 100,000-
	word Webster's dictionary.

	If I had unlimited resources... well, quite frankly, I'd
	retire!
