That depends on your point of view. My opinion on these matters has had a great effect on the type of equipment that the friendly local computer store in my town carries, for example. And since that's where I do my "computer shopping", and where many others around here do theirs as well (especially the ones who may be asking me for help in the future), that's sufficient for me. Just like Linux in general, frankly. I will assist anyone in this area who wants to convert their operation from Windows, on either a paid or volunteer basis depending on the circumstances. However, there are some people who ask about it and decide against doing this for one reason or another -- I'm not a salesman. I won't help people who don't wish to be helped. Just like anything else. You can always find reasons not to do anything if you really didn't want to do it anyway. > > Over the course of time, that subset may expand.

I wasn't aware that we were playing a guessing game. I attempt to avoid such immature silliness where-ever possible, but thanks for the invitation anyway. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
