Oh, I hope not! Live and let live. Everyone has their own favoured way of
setting up and doing business - It's the richness and diversity of the
linux community which makes it so appealing and so accessible to such a
broad range of people. Whatever will work best for the people at the user
end of the Computerbank process is what should win out I think.

Personally I think FreeBSD install and admin is a breeze compared with some
linux distros.  ;-P

I'd be happy to learn some new tricks.....(BURP! Excuse me, my Redhat was
repeating on me)

Cheers,
