Easy now. While I agree with you, it seems a bit agressive. Remember, most of us here are Linux advocates. At the same time, I don't want to see yet another MS vs Linux debate. The fact that we're on this list means we must have already heard one or two. I don't like the concept that we have to promote Linux at the expense of something else (Microsoft or otherwise). Linux stands on its own merits, regardless of how they got there (stealing, emulating, borrowing, blah, blah, blah). Cheers, Rob > -----Original Message----- > From: John C.
