Jan's choice has my vote. I have discovered that I can scan with my Canoscan FS4000 in Vuescan, while editing images as they get saved by Vuescan. I did not realise how wonderful it was to multitask so easily.

However, I have a SCSI card which, I think, gives my G4 Mac hassle and causes permananent sleeps.

But if you want to run popular applications (Word, Excel, Internet Explorer, Photoshop, etc.) AND Unix at the same time, without re-booting, you'll have to get a Mac. It works beautifully. I've got 20 applications open, and had them open for over a week, including a Unix terminal window and numerous Unix servers. It never crashes:

The last time my server was down was to install an OS update.
