Russ,
There is an offical java icq which will run on linux as well as any
other platform which allows you to run java apps, but it is slow. I would
recommend using Licq, which comes with the mandrake distribution (just
type 'licq' at the terminal prompt).

Because vmware is cool!I wish they didn't want $300 for the

with it) it looks like a really neat produ

Hi Russ,
In your Mandrake cd is an icq program called licq, it's pretty good. But there
are some other programs too. If you are used to Mirabilis' icq program then try
kicq, it's almost identical. For more information go to:
www.portup.com/~gyandl/icq , there you'll find links to other icq clones

Really? I cou
Guillermo,
You said you use Linux for several different things, one of which was
icq. Are you referring to the program that allows people to know when
another gets on line then chat together? I use this program allot in
98 and am really going to miss it when I make the final jump. I wrote

Hi Alberto:
You can try Linux at no risk (almost!). You can have that "piece of badly
written, undocumented piece of junk software software" supposed to be an OS
running along with Linux.

when you say 'work' what do you mean? If you are interested in email and web surfing
then yeah, go for it. If you want to run any kind of server definitely go for it. if
you want to learn and tinker, go for it.
But if you want to run office programs and games... probably not quite for you.
