Nice idea, but there's a reason I like Windows - it gives me a job to do

..been there, done that....but that was some time ago...when I did 1st level Win95 support for "SOHO" (=Small Office/Home Office) users for BULL Computers...

The Internet was quite new for us then...nearly no one had (edit: internet-) access at home....and most user-problems were of the "PEBKAC" variety...

When I read this topic's titel for the first time, I thought you were leaving.
