>From the start of this thread, mention of spending very little - if any - was made clear - hence I make the statement about money. And when I lived in the States, yeah, all my life $40 bux wasn't a bad price for anything - but now I've come to realize that $40US is literally $80AUD - so here, we try NOT to buy as much as we can - and getting Mandrake out of a magazine was a good way of getting "marketing done" for our particular population... I fully agree that money should go to Mandrake and the other companies...but we can't market linux - we can market PACKAGES... -- Mon Nov 18 06:55:00 EST 2002 -------------------------------- | __ __ | | / \ /| |'-. | | .\__/ || | | | | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | | | / \__.`=._) (_ |kuhn media australia | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| |http://kma.0catch.com | |'. `\ | | |stephen kuhn | ;"""/ / | | |email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| |mobile: 0410-728-389 | ' `-`' " " |linux user:267497 -------------------------------- The hatred of relatives is the most violent. -- Tacitus (c.55 - c.117)
