   My machine multiboots; two choices are WinXP and Win98, each with its own   
   install of MS Office. (Office 97 on Win98; Office 2k on WinXP.)

   I'll be around. I rarely post in *nix groups, though.

   I use more than Linux. I run a number of other *nix systems under   
   emulation: FreeBSD, NetBSD, Darwin (another BSD), BeOS, and QNX. Pretty   
   much everything I do in Linux I can do in those other systems.
