I just want to say I'm impressed. A friend of mine brought his windows laptop around yesterday. He plugged it into my crossover cable. I then launched LinNeighbourhood on my computer and mounted his shared directories without a problem.
This may seem trivial to the old gurus, but for me, up until now I've never managed to set up samba. Linux is more than ready for the reasonably-computer-literate-but-not-necessarily-gurus demographic of society. Yuri
