David,

I would be very interested in hearing your comments.  I had the same dream and I
tried the beta, but it wasn't what I had hoped for.  Many Apple programs and
drivers wouldn't work then, but should in March when it is officially released.

I would really like to know if you are happy with it and which lists you find
that have information on ported open source applications, etc.

Thanks and GOOD LUCK!
