First of all. The sort of person that would associate an OS with an image is already going to associate Linux with "sandals, tree-hugging and long-hair" ;-) And second... considered a flake by who? Compared to say Rodney Hyde or Helen Clark? hrumph! :-) Anyway, a non-threatening image is probably good for a computer operating system. There is still a large body of opinion that implies that Linux is harder to run than Windows. ---------------------------------------------------- Regards, Zane Gilmore (Linux nerd since 1998) ____________________________________________________ Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.:- A.C.Clark ____________________________________________________
