We have no power over what Microsoft does, but we do have power over where Linux goes. And maybe, just maybe if we listen to some of the bitches and whines about what we have, *we* *could* *improve* it. I know that some of you think it is perfectly acceptable to have to download an installation script, change the permission on it, run it, troubleshoot it, look at a log file, check a few forums, change kernel source, run it again and then modify the xorg.conf file to get a video driver running, but guess what ? The rest of the world doesn't think like you. Imagine that. -- Kim Lux, Diesel Research Inc.
