I must confess to some shock that my relatively short and, I thought, 
pretty balanced, reply to Brian could have generated such a provocative 
response, which I fear really *is* off-topic for the list.

Suffice it to say that it's the little things.  Like I say, SCO was born 
into an rs232 world.  Set up a serial printer under Linux/Cups and then 
do it under Open Server and then maintain it for a few months and I 
think you will see the subtle but very noticeable differences I am 
referring to.

To me, Linux is far superior for the things I generally use it for.  But 
there are still area's that SCO just handled better.  There is no 
dishonor in that.
