The only time I ever touched a machine with Windows loaded was when I unboxed this laptop, inserted the Red Hat Linux-7.1 boot-disk, and blew away the disk in order to install something useful. I run a server and two laptops, and provide tech support for lots more RHL systems, and I can't believe that I'm any where near the only one in this position. BTW, your post was all on one line, a feature of MUTT, I gather. -- Bill in Denver On Sun, 15 Sep 2002, Gregory Nowak wrote: > Are you suggesting that if you, or rather tweak ui screws windows, the person using it doesn't know what s/he is doing? If you are, then you are way off. If I didn't know what I was doing in windows, I wouldn't be here running a GNU/Linux server today.
