You are certainly partly correct. ;-) Windows is a VIRUS. It propogates by contact exposure, thru the air waves by propaganda, and deliberate infection of new computers. B.G. only controls the last two. L.T. has a little going on the first one, and diddly on other vectors. The business of "unfriendliness" is a propaganda area. Maybe if some lies were told about Linux via advertising aimed at the young crowd (something along the lines of how Linux could improve your sex life or get you a better car) the new virus would take hold. You COULD even tell the truth, but that would only attract a smaller, more intelligent audience. <G> - Clarence Verge - Back to using Arachne V1.62 ....
