For Linux even rumours are printed .. Obviously, the state of things in Germany is much better than things here in the states. here in the states, as far as almost every single magazine is concerned, Linux *does not* exist. It is ignored. IMHO, Everyone here is on the the Dos/Windoze bandwagin, and is too stupid/lazy ot learn a real OS. And people wonder why the US is going down the drain. -- Copyright 1995 Sam Trenholme. Microsoft Network is prohibited from redistributing this work in any form, in whole or in part.
