No need to look elsewhere really. The GNU/Linux OS, which XFree86 is most
commonly run upon can fulfill all the computing needs you will ever have. (And
you don't need to reboot it every time you move the mouse!)

Find levels of reliability and stability you never dreamed of: when most people
find out how blue-screen errors and GPFs need never be seen again, it's a little
like then finding out that they don't actually have to breathe to stay alive!

There *is* a better way.... really, there is!
