And my boss thinks I'm a linux zealot, sheesh. The newbies *WILL*
find ways to screw up. Or don't you remember what happened when some

will probably port it to linux with the same brain-dead wide-open
defaults. It's not the OS behind the computer, it's the nut behind the
keyboard that's the problem.
