Yup. I use KDE most of the time when using Linux. The advantage of
the pre-OS X Mac OS is that it is not a GUI, but the actual OS.

Why? Does she not use a two-button mouse with a Mac? I do.

Haven't tried it. I've determined that StarOffice is better than
ABiOffice, but that's it.

Me too. I much prefer Mac-onLinux with OS 9 to OS X. If I'm going to
be forced into using a UNIX variant, there are better ones than the
Darwin kernel.
