Yes, it never ceases to amaze me how many people (newbies especially, but even some old hands who really should know better) consistently think that AOLM is some sort of forum in which they can expect their concerns, once aired there, to be read and responded to as if they had been sent directly to MandrakeSoft ... no matter how many times or in how many ways we all attempt to disabuse them of this fanciful notion, they just don't "get it"; if and when they eventually do, two more similarly misguided souls immediately pop up to take their place.

I'm sorry to hear that you've left the AOLM fold, Wobo - your many and varied contributions will be missed there, and not only by me. :( -- Bill Mullen [EMAIL PROTECTED] MA, USA RLU #270075 MDK 8.1 & 9.0 "An opinion is like a branding iron.
