Yes there will definitely be scope for me to relay back how the idea of OS is received at some oficial level. I have actually ran it past a couple of people already and their response has been very positive. I want to be sure, firstly, that I am using as much in the way of OS as I possibly can and that may even involve a fresh install of my Operating System. It would be strange if I didn't actually. I'll take a look at those items you have posted too. Thanks !
