Not always good publicity. In a flight that my friend travelled by recently the in-flight system was re-booted nine times! (The cabin crew are asked to re-boot every time the system appears to work incorrectly). He saw the Penguin nine-times with all the boot up messages. You can imagine what impression the passengers got of Linux! :-( Kapil. -- _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
