Hi John,

I'm absolutely thrilled to read ESNUG 292 Item 2!  :-)   Way to go!!

I actually had Linux as a question at MUG 96, but unfortunately I was unable
to attend and state my case.  :-(  When I restated my question for MUG 97
they told me that it had been asked @ MUG 96 and there hadn't been any
interest (horror!!)

I sure hope your column will pave the way for Linux.
