Sometimes it's better not to force the issue. IMHO it may be better to provide a favorable mention of linux, some tantalizing examples, and provide pointers to more info, rather than giving a weak first impression of linux. What you will have, is a bunch of microsoft-oriented students who have been inoculated against linux, by being introduced to a weak strain of it. Thereafter, when they hear about linux, they will say "ah yes, linux, I remember - it was some sort of windows program, I forget what it does, it didn't do much. some sort of unix emulator I think, I'm not sure" Joe --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
