Just so you can better appreciate *my* personal preference(s). I have 30+ servers. All of which originally were running some sort of M$ product. It may interest you to know that only *2* of them have M$ on them now. Their days are numbered. ;) Now, I do find that "clicking around" *can* be the most effecient way to accomplish some things. *IF* the path to the destination is the shortest. Unfortunately for M$ products, the newer the product, the *longer* the path - getting things done w/ a mouse in M$ requires taking the scenic route. So, having found that FreeBSD is by far and away the most *effeciently* functioning OS available. I naturally chose it for those servers. The fact that I chose it should say something for character, no? While what I propose for the boot scrn does potentially add some more bits to ones install image. It is *optional* meaning it is not a requirement. Remember, alot of FBSD installs are workstations (a place for computer enthusiasts and the likes) that simply provide a place to hold their digital toys and eye candy - provide some sort of visual stimuli. While this is not "my cup of tea" it is to a large number of ppl. I realize this was a l o n g reply. But I had hopped that we might have a better understanding now and not turn this "opinion" into a *huge* thread. :) -Chris P.S. My favorite place is still at the prompt. > > -- > Anton A.
