Hi Chad!

Well, that's where I am. I am trying to provide a free service. If it
was just for me I would forget Linux but I am working on a non-profit
project with *no* budget. Then we hear about "Point and Click Linux" -
wouldn't any non-profit with no budget be interested?

I dare to demonstrate that it is *not* point and click and I am some
kind of a terrorist?

If the Linux community is only for programmers and techies who don't
need any "hand-holding" or rich folks who can afford to pay a lot for
it, well then for heaven's sake, say so and be done with it.

Regards,

Pete
