SLUGs:

Don't know how many of you read the business section of the Tampa
Tribune, but there was an op ed piece in there today by a guy named Dan
Gillmor. He expressed concern about our growing dependence on the
one-vendor solution (Microsoft). He's looking to work out ways for
people to gain independence from Microsoft. He'd like suggestions about
how to accomplish this.

I'm sure he's heard about Linux, though he didn't mention it. But if
you're interested, and if you can intelligently suggest something
besides "Use Linux!" (which just makes penguinistas look like kooks),
you can send him suggestions.
