Hi, Well most of our customers who come for browsing and checking mail do not know how to operate a windows 98 machine also. So any way we have to help them with their doubts. So running linux as the OS does not make much of a difference. But all my customers have an account with hotmail. So they usually want to use msn messenger and some people want to use yahoo messenger. Till recently that was a big problem with using linux in cybercafe. But not any more as yahoo has released a linux based yahoo messenger and we have a free msn messenger clone for linux (which is not supported by microsoft) which works alright. Anyway most of my customers are not worried about which OS one uses as long as they are able to get their job done. -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Choose from over 50 domains or use your own ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: ValueWeb: Dedicated Hosting for just $79/mo with 500 GB of bandwidth!
