I disagree with you, though, about your reaction to having to manually d/l the binary firmware. Using Linux means sometimes having to get your fingers a bit greasy.I manage a lot of machines daily, and yes normally I agree, and I get my fingers greasy plenty. On my desktop I generally don't want to get grease anywhere, I haven't got the time. :-)

Cheap and Easy: Windows. (Well, not really, but that's the fiction.) Cheap and Secure: Linux. Easy and Secure: OSX. -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Help a man when he is in trouble and he will remember you when he is in trouble again.
