I'd like to interrupt this currently scheduled thread to alert the list that this thread is about to become a *flamewar*. In the interests of not boring the entire list to death and scaring off a whole bunch of newbies, I implore those involved to please take any followups of list, or if you must just take it to slug-chat@ (and taking it to slug-chat@, doesn't mean CC-ing slug@ at the same time!). Thank you all for your time and understand, Cheers, Benno -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
