I just left Motorola and we could get Dells w/ Linux pre-installed. Workstation and laptop. Granted, none of us using Linux wanted anyone else installing for us ;-). In any case the Linux boxen weren't paying any taxes to Redmond. This is a corp deal that also went for Mot emp personal purchases. Guess it still isn't available at street level, though :(. ciao, der.hans -- # +++++++++++=================================+++++++++++ # # [EMAIL PROTECTED] # # http://home.pages.de/~lufthans/ # # I'm not anti-social, I'm pro-individual. - der.hans # # ===========+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++=========== #
