true... very true. Different can cause problems. But they don't have to.
Even though my friends have different builds, releases, and versions of
linux, there is very little problems we have sharing the files we work on
together.

And i should point out that for the linux part of this thread:
a. I never would have tried to install it if i knew it would require so
many sleepless nights and so much time
b. I'm glad i didn't know, because i'm glad i eventually got it working.
c. I was incapacated at the time with two broken backs (one from skiing,
one from a car wreck 20 days later), and had nothing better to do over
last Xmas break, and...
d. I've made up the time 'wasted' installing linux and not working becuase
i'm not stuck working in a bad GUI environment :).

-k.
