<-- snip --> I think a lot of people who are posting here are probably having problem running linux in their business and come to slug for help. I don't see this as a problem at all. I think the only difference here is in degrees, there is a difference between "how do i do XYZ" and "please teach me how to write a dynamic web application", but i think in general, if the slug list can't help those using linux at work, then what is the point?!
