I've been playing (read frustrating myself crazy) with Linux now for a few months. I have done an upgrade from hamm to slink. I figured out how to get X running. I figured out how to get KDE installed. I can call my ISP.
I just had one of those "cool!" moments I thought I'd share with everyone since this list always seems to be filled with "it don't work!" posts. I just used pon under KDE, connected to my ISP, started up Netscape, and read my AOL e-mail. Now I'm replying to the list using AOL's NetMail from within Netscape. "Cool!" Call it my first productive task since I installed Linux. Now if I can just get Quicken 99 to run under Linux, I can finally get rid of "that OTHER OS". -Jay
