Hi:  Well, whether it's working with linux long enough to feel somewhat 
comfortable, or whether linux is "catching up", but I personally think it's 
because linux is "catching up".  There's a myth being perpetuated, and if we 
take the naysayers through an install of RH, SuSE, Mandrake, they'll just be 
in awe, I think.  So, when the community-based studios get up and running, 
one of the first things we do, is a video!!! Show Them!
