Others are very happy to run X > or Y. You're a complete moron! Y is *far* better than Z, and always will be! X is a complete waste of time -- Not even worth considering. I'm running Y on a 300MHz 80486 with 5Gb of RAM and 15Tb of disk. Y consumes much less disk space and memory than either Z *or* X, it's compatible with every piece of software ever written for any architecture, and its networking code is perfect.
