Here's an interesting posting I read on Bombay LUG mailing list :lol:
Once setup gnu/linux systems are quite boring u know. Spamassain knocks out a hundred spam mails from my vsnl pop mail (that is vsnl mails speciality allowing tons of spam). Clamav knocks out another hundred nematodes (actually pointless since those poor worms are quite harmless). The ocassional portscan is detected and yawn..... no blue screens, no illegal operations, no virus frenzies and now a days no hacked to death windoze is better than honey discussion on the list either. So as far as regular slow joe's usage is concerned gnu/linux simply works.
