PS: if you use Netscape, "testforum" will appear in huge letters. Just
set up your preferences for UNICODE encoding to "helvetica 12 pt", and
the site will look much better. This appears to be a bug in netscape: if
you know of some workaround, please tell me.
Folks, don't worry about it. Journalists think that it's fancy to
cryticise linux this season, so they do. What Henri said counts, and
that's:
"Obviously, things need to be simple for users, but I don't think
restricting choice is really the answer."
