That's what I meant by fun :).

I envy you programers and all this bug tracking stuff.  It looks
like a lot more fun than tracking down which of the 6 "working" 
drives on the SCSI chain is messing with the whole system or why 
some nodes on a 100 Mbps network only seam to connect at modem 
like speeds.  Anytime I solve a big problem I go and catch up on 

  http://www.uk.linux.org/diary

just so I don't start feeling smug.  When you have time for this 
stuff let me know.  

PS : Is GDB as much fun as a 40oz Ball Pin Hammer ?
