Duncan, Daniel,
Thanks and indeed we intend to take the advice that Radford and Lukas have
provided in this thread.
I do want to re-iterate that the generating system itself cannot have any

Martin,
Thanks for the helpful reply. Alas I had forgotten that (implied)
unfavorable comparisons of *nix systems with Windows systems would likely
draw irate (but always substantive) responses on the R-devel list -- poor

Regardless, let me try to address some of the conce
