Well I'm a retired teacher; nowadays I don't do anything the world considers productive, just a little volunteer work, etc. Instead I do stuff that's fun. So, having never owned a laptop, I got a $250 used thinkpad on ebay. It had no OS so I installed a small DOS partition (for WordPerfect 5.1, and dosemu) and Linux. Then I got into IP masquerading the thinkpad from my desktop, for fun, figuring out ssh, again for fun. So, I guess untrammelled hedonism is my motivation. -- Hugh Lawson Greensboro, North Carolina [EMAIL PROTECTED]
