Subject:   The old and the new

Preston, you should be thrilled! :)
Consider Linux as the best of the old and the new - both which are familiar territory for you.


NEW: the snazzy graphical desktop and competent replacements for commercial apps.


OLD: the pre-Win3.1 days of powerful command line tools. Sure your commands are different, but if you suffered through it back then, you'll probably actually enjoy it now.


Either way - welcome aboard!
