It's his company. But does it fit anyone else? It perfectly fits the round depot "G". :-) It's a common misbelief that "Windows" doesn't involve learning. IT DOES. Furthermore, this misbelief is strenghtened by the typical habit of "Windows" users to delegate problems they encounter to others (who then solve the problems, or even do the pending work). You would wonder how many problem people have who have never seen a "Windows" before and are now forced to try to do any serious work with that. Even the relation between the "foot pedal" and the "white triangle", let alone the "letter board", is too complicated for many. I could see that in reality... -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
