Cheers, -- Steve <dark> Unix's elegant and suave design makes it seem slightly older than it really is. * StevenK waits for Unix to have a mid life crisis and start dating operating systems half it's age. <Mithrandir> StevenK: it's called samba. <dark> Mithrandir: Such lack of taste. <dark> If you're going to date operating systems half your age, then at least make sure they're bouncy and cute. <dark> Maybe it's just a sexual thing. Windows goes down easily, and Unix can stay up forever. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
