Computer Aided Design & Manufacturing Systems

Hello,



I've been trying to follow the discussion about kernels and the advantages
or otherwise of compiling your own.  I am still a relative newcomer to Linux
(I have SuSE 8.2 at home and am 'keeping an eye on developments' for work).
I used to be a teacher and if I were still I'd run straight back to the
safety of Microsoft.  The notion that straight after installing your brand
new OS you should tear the guts out of it and start again is pretty
horrifying for the average user!



The discussion does sort of explain one thing though, why the OS and
software behaves differently on my AMD machine compared to my brother's
PIII!  Now all I have to figure is how to get the desirable features from
each, on both!



Regards,





Phil Thane - Support Manager
