You're kidding, right? Have you ever called an ISP to report a technical problem that has nothing to do with your computer or even your connection to them, say a reverse DNS issue? If you tell them that you run Unix they just ask you to run IE anyway. If you don't run Windows they won't help you. That's a pretty clear message. -- D'Arcy J.M.
