Slow spamassassin on boot

From reading this, it seems like Dell maybe, maybe, have got the message right; Dell recognizes the importance of open source, GPL-licensed drivers which are maintained upstream in kernel.org. They allow users the widest choice of Linux distributions, effectively taking the specific hardware and distribution out of the decision-making process and let you focus on solving your business problems. We will work with our hardware partners to develop, test, and maintain Free drivers, and continue to make progress towards that goal for all drivers. Now *that* is darned encouraging! From http://direct2dell.com/one2one/archive/2007/03/28/9655.aspx That is great news! I'll probably hold on to buy a laptop and see if these babies are really worth the shot! I tend to build my own boxes, but rest assured, I *will* buy at least one dell just to support this effort -- assuming it all comes to fruition. A Lots of Dell here in Mexico: can you imagine seeing a box for sale with *Linux* on it?! Far out! Hugo I tend to be cautious when reading such announcements from a major manufacturer like Dell. Lets hope for the best. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGDCjrhg8zgEG6GRQRAvdaAJ9gqBYcR+lL1Yau170IAHjDUy1Y6ACfUfXG Tq7emqRyf0V8nG7dzNrzMlM= =lIRz -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
