Wow! This thread is going nearly as strong as the comments being posted as the article below! I had not read it when Charles posted it but have not and find it very interesting (if not refreshing!) Being as I'm an old school computer type I'm a foundational kind of guy and am applying that learning curve to Linux (albeit slowly!) I agree about the comments about M$ being cookie-cutter -- this is why I've left that world for GNU/Linux and am working to expand my experience and understanding of the free software movement.<BR>

Thanks for sharing Charles.........Rich in Lilburn<BR>
