I continue running it a bit later! Congratulations, Heikki ! I have no doubt that after you have used Linux for a while, you'll look at Windows differently. To my non-technical friends, I describe Linux as the dull looking girl in class who may not look like much, but can be relied on when things go bad, and Windows is the hot chick who is high-maintenance, and unless you have plenty of money and time, you can forget about even going out with her! ;) -- Pascal Chong email: chongym@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx web: http://cymulacrum.net pgp: http://cymulacrum.net/pgp/cymulacrum.asc "La science ne connaît pas de frontière parce que la connaissance appartient à l’humanité. et que c’est la flamme qui illumine le monde." -- Louis Pasteur
