I generally try to *not* be this guy, but I can't resist this one. >(current OS stock, 6 MS OS'es; 15 Linux's, >1 Free BSD - 1 Machine with NT for >wifey and work, 2 Linux, 1 FreeBSD) So are these installed machines? If so, are there really 2 FreeBSD machines or is it one? Is it 15 or 17 Linux boxes? Is it 6 or 7 MS machines? I'm guessing you meant that you meant that you have liscences for 6 MS OS's, 15 Linux's (oh wait, that doesn't make sense... are these different distrobutions?) and one for FreeBSD. I would have to guess that you meant that you have installed NT on one machine, Linux on two machines, and FreeBSD on one machine. >Interseting side note: this weekend needed to >do a powerpoint for work. So I >e-mailed the skeleton from work >(NT); saved it in Linux to a Win98 NTFS Where is this copy of Win98 installed? Oh, wait, you can't be right here because Win98 doesn't support NTFS. Sorry, I generally try not to be like that, but I just couldn't let this slide. As an aside, and I hope that Forrest reads this, IBM is (or has?) released a Notes Client for Linux, under the LGPL no less. I don't have a link handy, but It's part of a /. story about IBM's new WDE (that's weblication development environment).
