More like "how did current bun get onto Linux vs Windows?"

Somebody posted some user instructions from the "current bun" ISP set-up,
things like inserting the CD shiny side up, pressing the up arrow on the CD
tray to eject it, etc.

I (and some others) noted that some users do actually need this level of
mollycoddling given that they have two brains, one's lost and the other's
out looking for it. Then it went onto setting up windows and then someone
mentioned linux and the windows guy said it's harder to set up to which the
linux guy disagreed, you get the picture.

It's good, for about a month before this thread, this group was dead.
