Linux is BANNED per se, it's just not a viable option for me to push. We DO have a couple of Linux boxen around here but they are controlled by the corp overlords or 3rd party vendors. But rest assured, at least here, that no biomed devices are hooked up to a Windows machine.... well - none that matter as in life-or-death at least... -- Matt Jarvis Eugene, Oregon USA _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/capt54ryuy5zpk0ur+xfd_qjwtr0ahk7myz+3gn4-t42uemh...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
