Perhaps I have a different idea as to the meaning of 'half-hearted' from the rest of you, because I recon that shoving a Knoppix CD in a little portable machine and then asserting you support Linux is indeed 'half-hearted'.
That said, and reading Vik's post, it looks as if there is an opening here. As a start, would DSE like to have one of the portables set up so that it runs an installed Linux properly? I'm sure I / we could arrange that, and it would not be beyond the bounds of possibility to set up g4u so that the shop staff could reproduce the file-set load as needed. What would they like in the way of staff training? -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell NB. This PC runs Linux. If you find a virus apparently from me, it has forged the e-mail headers on someone else's machine. Please do not notify me when this occurs. Thanks.
