That's pretty much the way I had it parsed as well. I've run Gutsy under 
virtualbox, and it's certainly a nice distribution, but I never found 
that "WOW! Gotta have that!" place. Nothings nagging at me to upgrade 
(thank you, Canonical)

"It ain't broke..." seems to be the proverb for this situation. All my 
non-profits are frankly boring, they're so stable, and my desktop is 
mostly email and web, both of which work flawlessly on a $100 Gateway 
box. Not much to complain about there. I think I'll just watch from the 
sidelines ;->

Thanks for the reply.
