Sridhar:
Thank you very much for this link. I've forwarded it to several people
who are in the "thinking about Linux" stage. The writer has done an
excellent job of balancing all of the FUD about how hard it is to
install Linux (it really isn't) with the message that Linux ain't
exactly load-it-and-run-it (not to say that Windows actually falls in
that category). About the only shortcoming that I could see was that he
failed to mention that the installation includes a wealth of
applications far beyond anything that you'll get from Microsoft. Thanks
also for getting me to the IBM site. I'd never been there before, and I
was very impressed with the amount and quality of information that is
available.
Regards,
Carroll
