I converted last year to Linux (at home). I did it for choice and because I wanted to find and support an alternative to Microsoft (the possiblity of Paladium and the lockdown on XP scared the heck out of me). I have not looked back. I have found replacement software that was as good if not better for everything I was doing on Microsoft and Linux is significantly more stable. Case in point - I went to use my wifes PC (Win98) this afternoon (for the first time in months) and I had to reboot 3 times before I could finish what I was doing. I haven't had to rebooted my Linux box in about 4 months now and I'm not sure I had to reboot when I did. David -- ( ) ( ) ( 0 0 ) ---( )--- ----o---- "Linux is not The Answer. Yes is the answer.
