According to that page: "The FSSTND specified a standard filesystem structure for Linux systems" Why should we follow Linux standards any more than we follow Windows standards? <$0.02 mode> As an aside, is it just me or are the Linux-ites developing a "one true religion" attitude? That's interesting, given their usual denigration of the "Windows lemmings." Most of them, I bet, got Linux because they heard it was (great, cool, used by friends), never looking at any other alternatives. Does that make them "Linux lemmings?"
