This idea might just work. With a bit of asterisk wizardry, you can run such a support business from your bedroom, or operated by students on their free time. Reminds me of Thomas Friedman's story in "The World is Flat", about JetBlue. Apparently, JetBlue's whole reservation-by-phone system is run by housewives and retirees from Salt Lake City, which answer the phones at their own home. My dream is somewhat differet. My dream is that there would be a Linux- friendly computer shop, where I could come in, and every computer would come (if you want) pre-installed with Linux and they would only sell equipment that works with Linux (or your money back guaranteed). The same shop could also sell you ISP deals, and the shop will set up the needed DHCP/PPPoE/whatever software for you. But as they say, Martin Luther King said "I have a dream", not "I have a plan". -- Nadav Har'El | Sunday, Jul 8 2007, 22 Tammuz 5767 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |"90% of the politicians give the other ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
