<WHACK> Here's a question to ask them; do they only have white customers? It's literally the same thing. Prejudicial treatment. (Not intentionally, but because the IT department for that bank is stuck with a Microsoft solution - which tells you basically where a large amount of the profits they make go...) I laid that out before to a US bank; they didn't like that all that much; but as it was explained to them, it's the same basic treatment. I've currently got something similar going with the Australian Tax Office here over MS Java being used for doing our BAS (Business Activity Statement)... -- Tue Aug 5 13:55:00 EST 2003 13:55:00 up 1 day, 17:43, 1 user, load average: 2.51, 2.52, 1.80 ----------------------------------------------------------------- | __ __ |kuhn media australia | | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | |================================| | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn | | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | ----------------------------------------------------------------- linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1+ & RH 9 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 ----------------------------------------------------------------- * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * Youth is a disease from which we all recover. -- Dorothy Fuldheim
