I like the >bit about 'if you were my student you'd get a fail for Linux...' > Interesting. Seems design doesn't matter to judge by popularity. Of course we already knew that from windows. One thing I do know is Linux is a resource hog. It ran very poorly on my 70CT (about the same as Windows) and didn't leave much memory availible. Minix handles it much better. Neither has much for availible programs although Linux has a little more such as OpenOffice. Soon PowerBasic will release a basic for Linux. When PowerBasic does that I may try Linux again. One definate advantage to Linux is it already supports the Libretto hardware.
