Well, I'm sorry, but I thought it was a good idea when I read about it. ;-)
I use computers for living, and I'd love to be able to get all my work done
on a NetBSD machine (I just hate that bloated, crashing, X11 incompatible
winlose 95).. but there isn't much commercial software available at the
moment.  (Well, it doesn't have to be commercial if you can point me to a
free PowerLogic/PowerPCB compatible CAD package etc... ;)

OTOH, NetBSD already emulates many other UNIX clones.. if the commercial
software vendors just supported some UNIX versions :-I
