At least this list administrator (not owner) has no objection whatsoever. I find that I need to sharpen and maintain 
my Unix/linux skills (which developed when I was working on AIX at IBM) and am casting about for a linux distro 
to install on a secondary machine that should arrive in another week, along with eCS and XP [which I also need, 
since the websites I do for my clients sometimes behave very badly under IE:-(

I've lost track of the languages I've used over the years; just about all of them self-taught. Like you, I started with 
Rex (before it got the second x) on VM, back when file IO was not quite ready for prime time.
