Daffy mehawa... |> http://www.zenwalk.org/ | | That looks like something trying to pretend to be a Mac. How exactly would it pretend to be a Mac? It's actually based on Slackware. In any case, it's way less bloated than MacOS Bloat. -- ervaqre, your worst nightmare |

Then advise the company to switch to Vista because all the employees have Vista at home on the PC's they got through the company's "PC at home" plan. Then convince the company to pay for your Vista certification along with a couple of other courses. When completed promptly leave the company for a more lucrative Vista-certified job. It's probably in some book like "Way of the Rat". -- Danny. |
