I'm on a few linux mailing lists and one of the contributers happens to work for the beast itself, what would your comments be on receiving an email like this? Personally, I rate myself a 5 on a scale of 1 - 10 on linux knowledge so I consider myself to be a linux newbie and I believe I am not in a position, or have the knowledge, to sustain any commentary based on what the beast would like to know.
So in good faith of sharing knowledge for the greater good what are your thoughts on the below text? -j- =================== Hi, I noticed some of your great postings. Would you mind sharing some of your insights with me about why Linux can be a good solution for home users? I am a Microsoft employee doing some research on my own, so I can make recommendations to our managers about how we can really make Windows much better for the home. Believe it or not, I think there are a lot of great things about Linux, and would love to learn more so I can make useful suggestions on improving my company's products. If you could spare a few minutes, I would love to send a few questions, asking some of your opinions.
