Funny the things that catch your (my) eye - was cruising and noticed this on 
the google mirror. Been out long enough, figured I can be a (disinterested) 
lurker now.
I can't believe none of the Aussies subscribed have commented. Our Social 
Security people (whatever they are called this week) have also been getting 
hammered for years about their stone-age computer environment. OK, M204 is 
flint, but what the hell; they too run decent kit.

It works, and it'd better keep working. Been there, seen it, tremble at the 
thought of the dills proposing it all be chucked out for SAP on Windoze or 
some-such ...
Let's hope the proponents for Linux continue to have some wins.

Shane ...
