Since it's the weekend,
:o)
rant on
Linux is very stable and beats windows all over the place.
But,
until the Linux community gets this web browser "crap" resolved, to me,
Linux ain't worth the CD it is shipped on.
90% of my usage is surfing the internet.
IE 4 has problems, and 5 is worse, but Netscape dying at random is
unacceptable.
M14 sucks and Netscape 6, well, ain't much better.
rant off
And we thank you for your support......
