Re: How do you mount a Win98 drive under OpenBSD



I personally would never go back to and windows based system but others might, you clearly aren't understanding what I said, you do need users whether intelligent or not for any OS(but you just don't want them working on the OS itself). But why do you care if they know what they are typing does you just care that the OS remains powerful stable and funded and if morons who are too lazy to go learn what their doing continue being morons but also continue paying for it you want to keep them as long as you can.

you know a smart (exclusive) Windows user? And I'm not being sarcastic.
I don't know any Widnows users that know as much about their system as
anyone who has used Unix for a while does. (Or VMS :-) )

You are free to use Windows 2000, no one on this list gives a shit.
