Probably the former. My current computing situation is that I have 2 Debian boxes: one at work and one at home. (FU to those who called me a troll/MS aficiado) I can work on either and then rsync them through ssh. I don't see much of a logical reason for me to get a laptop, but a blind consumer and technophile in me wants an expensive toy. I can see how some people NEED a laptop with MS Office, etc., but I suspected that those laptop users with Linuces on them are mostly just following their technophilic desires. That's why I was curious as to what their motivation was. I hope my answer satisfies you. Alec _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
