Linux has always intrigued me and I have tried many distros.

I now have a computer with eSATA. I had a spare hard disk and

To pass my time I tried Linux again tonight.

I tried Ubuntu, Mint gnome and Mint debian based.

Honestly Linux missed the boat just as IBM missed the boat with
OS2.

I am firmlly entrenched in windows 7 at home and xp at my office.

Missed the boat with WHAT?
