No.

I can see why Jason would ask this.

He doesn't know me very well (or at all - I can't say I can put a face to
the name).

Talking of faces... I'm still trying to work out how I add my picture to the
vCard.  My current thinking is a url.

A agree that the signature I attached does read like a troll to a linux
forum.

I am infact attempting to better educate people about vCards.  I have
collected around 100 new business cards in my travels in the last 4 weeks
and am now over run with typing them into my contact manager.

As for the 'Linux & Open Source Users' comment... no, that is also not a
troll... it's a challenge to help me to become as productive with Linux/OS
as I am with MS products.  I'm willing to learn.  Are you guys willing to
teach?  I've purchased enough equipment to sink a boad, I'm happy to come to
install fests if you guys will just agree on some dates.  I've given out an
almost endless list of suggestions where I need help.  I spend my days
quietly working on projects to do more to support pushing Linux and OS
forward...  Don <> Troll.  Don = Man On Mission.  Mission = Grow our world
on information and leisure!

About vCard: This message has a 'vCard' attached.  It has all my contact
details in it.  You can create vCards in MS Outlook (I used MS Outlook
2000).  If you use Outlook you can drag and drop it direct into your
contacts list.

If you create and send me a vCard it saves me having to type all your
details in to my computer (and making mistakes :).

My computer is linked to my second hand Sony PEG-SJ20/G Palm Pilot (which
I'd love to upgrade to a Sony P900 PDA/Mobile with a Blue Tooth ear piece).

"Your vCard" --> "Outlook 2000" -->  "PDA" = Less Time, Less Mistakes, More
Productivity! :)

Linux & Open Source Users: I belong to the CLUG Mailing List - It took me 10
years to learn to be productive with Outlook - How many installfests do you
think it will take to become productive with Linux?
