Comment 3 for bug 146992

I found a fix for the problem. I got a new Unix based operating system and
now am finally free from windows. I have been using this new operating
system now for almost 6 months and IT IS BULLETPROOF. The feature are
GREAT. Although I am still learning small tricks, I am constantly pleased
at discovering new features that are GREAT rather than sickened by just
another bug. Upgrades happen but so far as I can tell, they actually fix
old problems, rather than unfix old solutions. (Sound familiar?). In
addition it runs on the slickest hardware I have seen EVER. I bought a MAC!
