Stuart,
First off. Don't think I ever have been to support.m$.com don't think they
have anything I'd ever want. Since I only use M$ for it's proper use, to
play games, why would I care about support. Any REAL work I want to do is
done under some flavor of Unix.
As oon as someone gets CoD running under Linux, I'll go back to a single
boot system.
