ok! you are kidding right! just thought would be a nice way to spend a quiet sunday afternoon by starting a flame war. nice try. but sudev, sandip, i, and a whole lot of people will let it pass. [sound of screeching flame-torches heard overhead as they harmlessly miss their mark and fall into a cool, extinguishing, flowing river] but just for the record, could you furnish us with the following two: 1) reference, examples, of 'many' people who are pessimistic. 2) the seemingly uninformed 'review' that you read. also, do note that CAD/CAM as a category has no direct substitute for autocad for the moment. this due to several non-technical reasons. however, that has nothing to do with thin-clients. you are mixing two unrelated issues here. on the other hand, 2d and 3d graphics are processed with incredible brute-force, thanks to the concept of clustering. hollywood works on gnuLinux. enjoy your sunday. :-) LL _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
