Yeah, like I said, MS monitors the list. :) I wish there was a Linux Inc. that had a San Diego office that would put us up and provide pizza and drinks etc. I got a chuckle a while back when some vendor hosted a presentation for the windows group at Donovans and fed them steak and they went on about how delicious the steak was and the software was apparently cool as well. :) Yep, it's a totally different culture over there. -- Tracy Reed http://www.tracyreed.org If Microsoft built cars instead of software, the airbag system would say "Are you sure?" before going off. -- KPLUG-List@kernel-panic.org http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
