Actually Rob, it's Curt Johnson.... ;-p
Sorry I missed you. I'll be at the meeting this thursday in Brandon if you
want to give the Mac another go.... they are a bit more difficult to
compile a kernel on than x86, especially with the newer hardware.
BTW... did anyone see the City of Largo implemented a 400 node, 800 user
thin client solution on RedHat 7.1 with KDE 2.1.1?
I think we should get Dave Richards (drichard@largo.com) to come speak
about it and tell us how he managed to convince the powers that be to play
with Linux ;-)
See you guys later....
