Eric,

   While I don't agree with his approach, I am interested in hearing about
new products in the Linux market. I am into this LUG because I believe we
have something better here, but it takes market acceptance to make it
successful. I would be very upset if this spam had been off topic, but it is
what this LUG is about, right? I plan to support companies willing to risk a
Linux release. I'm tired of buying broken down WinCrash software. I'd pay
real money to have software that works the first time out of the box!

IMNSHO,
Brian
