good point, imho. the validity of the pro-windows arguments in this mailing list are irrelevant. this is just like going to a coat-and-tie party wearing only shorts and slippers. there may be nothing wrong with shorts and slippers per se, they can even be very useful at times, but they have no place in a formal party.
i for one did not subscribe to this mailing list just to learn 'how cool windows is'. i subscribed so i might be able to learn more about linux. cluttering the mailing list with windows-this, windows-that when the bandwidth and diskspace this all takes could just as well have been used for discussing how to use linux better, well, it doesn't make sense. nuff said joel realubit > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Federico Sevilla III > Sent: Sunday, January 13, 2002 1:46 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [plug] We are NOT a Windows Users' Group!
