It's by no means impossible to release closed source products on linux. BUT it would have been interesting to see if it would work better than the current development phase, where people could actually find and comment bugs produced. Their beta release cycle would also work better if one constantly could check out their CVS and see what's being done. > SecureBat! is tied to an USB driven mechanical key.

Visit <URL:http://www.linux-usb.org/PressRel1.html> and the rest of their website. I use USB in linux for both Logitech Trackball mouse and MP3 player (MPIO DMK128). -- Yours sincerely - Jakob Breivik Grimstveit (cell: +47 48298152) System Integrator, Star Shipping, IT Department (office: +47 55239715) [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.starshipping.com An idea is not responsible for fools who believe in it. ________________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
