    No, quite the opposite... the PowerMac hardware is something I
drool over (the 9500/132 is impressive).  Here Apple has a chance to
give it a decent operating system to go with it, and they choose....
Linux???  Egads.

    I can't wait in about a year's time when first-time Mac users
start hearing how great UNIX is for connecting to the Internet, and
our customer support folks go even more nuts trying to explain the
inner workings of UNIX to the newbies.  :-/
