Hi Bill, I am not always for open-source, but I am not always against it, either. I am for whatever gets the job done. On the workstation, at this time, you're pretty much in trouble if it isn't Windows... You're just going to be more limited on a Linux desktop, like it or not. Having said that, I run two small Linux boxes as servers. I'd never dream of running Windows on those boxes! Darrell Shandrow - Shandrow Communications!
