I know I'll get shot for saying this (on this list), but if this is going to be a desktop trial at an office where everybody is currently a Windows user, you might want to look at Xandros rather than pure Debian. Xandros is Debian-based, so you can apt-get all the Debian packages. Crossover Office is included with Xandros, and that should handle most of your Windows apps until you can migrate to 100% Linux. But Xandros costs money (US$99) while Debian is free. Good luck. Robert -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
