Why should i use *nix?
Win'98 SE seems to work quite well on my computer (and there is even a 
complete mailserver (Mercury), a virus scanner (MailScan) and a scheduler 
running, and sometimes a mail client (Eudora)). I have a permanent dsl 
connection with fixed ip (upload 12kbytes/sec download 80kbytes/sec), and 
no problem ever. Xitami serves as internet server <web.verfaillie.com> and 
intranet server. Only the virus scanner slows the system down when mail is 
arriving.
I tried some unix flavor years ago, but it's command shell is so completely 
different of DOS that my fingers felt of my hands and i reverted to 
dos/windows.
