Actually it would be just as proper to say Merry X-Mas. Alot of linux purists
dont like the referral "X Windows". From what i understand, that's part of the
reason its called X. you could also say Merry X11-mas or Merry XFree86-mas
(that actually has a nice ring!). On the subj of books, i saw a really neat
one today called Linux: I didnt know you could do that. . .its really simple
exlpnations of some fairly complex tasks. . .
