I'm pretty much resigned to the fact that my winmodem isnt going to work under linux, however with WINE (or similer) which runs windows apps under linux is it possilbe to run a windows email client and get online that way? also to run windows apps in general, does any of windows need to be installed? am I totaly missing the point here? (my linux/win box is at home and im mailing this form work - but the idea just came to me) Decal
