I usually (around 80% of the time) also run linux on the desktop. Unfortunately, I have to make it possible for the other users of my mail server to use my mail server... In addition, until a whole lot of software vendors get the idea, it's going to be a dual boot world. On top of that, don't assume that linux can't catch something... It's happened before, it will happen again. Mike- Mornings: Evolution in action.
