</div></div>Ah, the pragmatism that comes with age. I've been using Linux for about<br>
thirteen years now and only once have I reinstalled from scratch in<br>
order to solve a problem, and that was about a year ago when Debian<br>
Testing got really, really messed up (modules wouldn't load, etc.). I<br>
realized life was too short for me to go through the long, arduous<br>
process of fixing it so I reinstalled.<br>
<br>
There's wisdom in that.<br>
