Hi Bill, Thanks for the topic suggestion. I could talk about the differences between various distros perhaps and the history of them. Not sure I'll have that ready by Feb 1st though.
I haven't used PCLinuxOS in a while but I did review it for the Linux Planet site about 10 years ago. Good to know it's still out there. I can certainly think of some suggestions for an alternative that might support your printer. We can have a chat about it next time. I'm sure we'd be happy to hear you financial story as well.
