I'm afraid I drank it over a decade ago ... and it saved my career from Windoze ( which I can say I have NEVER once had to install, or re-install or what ever ;)

Yes, I sometimes miss IRIX, Solaris and HPUX, but it still beats Wincrap.

And for the record I Mostly use Macs at home and for my work laptop.  Mac OS X is a decent UNIX platform.  I do have a Linux server, and got my son an EEE and put Fedora 12 on it for him last x-mas.
