Wow, Randell, do you often get so mad when you realize you've made a mistake? Maybe you were trying to save money, maybe you just felt you could live with the problems associated with their hardware. Just because you made a poor choice though shouldn't stop others from being alerted to the potential problems they might encounter making equally bad decisions. > > He doesn't have to discard his hardware purchase because of a few > > problems, that seems very illogical on your part to mention that, > > but he will have to live with the problems associated with his > > decision in choosing bad hardware to use with Linux. > > You're the one that suggested that he invalidate his existing > purchase.

It has in the past, it will in the future until Asus manufactures better hardware. Sorry you didn't understand that before buying. bye, Lee --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
