Idea to replace MetroX in Red Hat

I know you guys are always looking to make deals for including useful commercial apps, but I think there's a useful idea you're overlooking: OSS/Linux. Improved sound board support in the base package would go a long way towards encouraging folks to part with that $49. I mean, why save $20 by

Microsoft Outlook Express, and most other email programs that allow HTML formatting, put the plain-ASCII text in the main body, and attach the HTML-formatted version as a MIME attachment. If your text-based email program isn't dealing with this properly, it's a bug in your program or in your conf

What's so great about Linux.

Mr. Dodge, thank you for taking the time to bring up the subject of Linux; and what's more important, to admit that you don't know everything about it, instead of just condemning it on the "if I don't know it, I must not need it" principle. What's so great about Linux? Well, quite a number of th

You should keep in mind some of Dale Carnegie's principles. (Say what you like about the man, but he knew people and he knew how to convince them of things.) Don't tell them they're wrong. This just makes them defensive. Call attention to their mistakes indirectly. Get them agreeing with you
