That isn't the only issue.  Linux is totally different then Windows.  They
have no common ground other then Linux's ability to service Window's boxes.
 Same ccan be said for OS/2 except that Linux has trouble writing to OS/2
partitions.  All other networking works great though.

Yep.  That and many other issues.  I want a Linuxed Maximus.  Personally I
don't care if it's portable to OS/2 or Windows.

Life is good,
