As one who's had multiple trials with Linux from Suse to Mandrake to Redhat to Ubuntu I would disagree with that statement. There's not a chance in the world I would give a neo-phyte a Linux box and say "Here, you can do all these cool things with it." As a dedicated device running one program like RD, maybe. Never as a multi-function tool where they might need to figure out how to open a Word or Excel file, add software or change hardware. Ever. It takes a SERIOUS amount of learning to manage a Linux environment. Engineers and dedicated IT people may have the time. Those who don't, and most of the world doesn't, they stick with Windows and Mac. -- Jeremy _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list Rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org http://lists.rivendellaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
