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!
