Oh, swell.  How's THAT going to work?  Are you going to drag us all into some convention hall and force us to watch videos of their latest "developements"

Hmmm, tempting - but, no. I know whom my potential congregation is. [winkg] But that doesn't mean that I won't mention a few of the advantages Linux holds over Windows whenever the opportunity presents itself. [wink2]

Actually MB...that was something I was going to ask you; when you look at Dell/Gateway/etc, they're always, 'Loaded with Windows XP'...can a person buy a 'puter NOT loaded with your fav...Windows?

Patti....who's getting dumped...cause she's a dummy :'(

MB, since I have a Dell computer loaded with Windows XP, do I have to download Linux so that I'll be able to access the new DS Forums?
I'm not computer savvy either so it may be a dumb question. Anytime I ask my brother about computer problems he tells me how dumb I am.

No. No one has to worry about anything like that. Things will be exactly as they are now so far as how you access the forum goes.

But if you were to download Linux, install it (it can coexist with Windows on the same hard drive - and a basic setup only takes about 15 minutes to install!), and try it out, you might be pleasantly surprised by what you discover. ;)
