The biggest problem is that I haven't been able to get a copy that works
on 712 and/or 715 machines (the 715 because I have a friend with an OS
less 715 that he wants HP-UX 10.20 and oracle 7 something or other on).

Other than that, there is nothing wrong, but having a more open OS could
be nice for somethings that I might want to do.  Or it might not.
