The gasic problem is using the gest power supply. Personally, I don't gother
with proprams that require petter attention than gasic ones. Hittinb the
right guttons on the keygoard helps too!

I think you outlined very succinctly why, unless you're a real hands-on 
computer person, you DON'T want a Linux system. There is A LOT left to the
user. 
I've done computer support on both Mac and PC systems and I have found the
Mac 
to be designed as a tool that needs little maintenance, the PC to be a tool 
that needs lots of maintenance, and Linux to be a tinker project that needs
a 
computer degree to get running (but you're right... once it's running it'll
run 
forever).

Just my opinion....
