I'm glad to hear that's how the smart guys on Arch feel about it.
It has been quite some time since I had a problem with it. It's quite
possible that the faded memory was from a time before I tried Arch.
It's certain that a similar issue of some pop-up wanting to help me deal
with a CD or DVD I'd just inserted, annoyed me far more often than Thane ever
did with am inserted sub stick... But that, likewise, hasn't happened in a long
time.
Guess I was just being nervous about nothing...
