Newbie is someone that learns something (almost) completely new. If you were to learn the Superstrings theory, then you would be a newbie in Strings, but that doesn't mean that you have no clue about Physics. Pls, don't compare Linux OSes and Unices with Windows. They are different things and thinking that one is developed for the substitution of the other is completely nonsense. > express their heart felt appreciation. I don't know the legalities of > this.
