Thanks :-)

As a matter of fact, the Finnish weather is far from what it used to be 'in the good old days'; for example, currently we have very little snow here in Helsinki, temperature is 2 degrees Celcius (35.6 F), so it's very moderate. One has to travel well over 800 km (497 mi) in order to see some frost - almost to the other end of Finland :-)

Nevertheless, we are certainly waiting for the summer. I can hardly wait for the 'weather prophets' to come out with their expectations regarding the summer, but I expect this year it's going to be very warm.

What comes to Unixen, I simply do Unix. Was it Linux (I run a mix of Ubuntu and Xfce in my laptop), OS X or some other commercial version. I started with operating systems around 1984 (CP/M - I wonder how many users of this forum even knows this one?) and carried on with Xenix in 1987, so I have seen quite a bunch of different derivates and versions :-) Ubuntu is definitely my favourite, I have been using it since version 7.10.

Cheers,
