Rumor has it that William Donzelli may have mentioned these words:
Why? Just
because some supervisor says to do something is no reason
to do something if it's senseless.
It depends on how much you like your paycheck.
Unforch, that is the way it goes sometimes...
taxpayer, you
certainly should be able to take a set of Linux or
FreeBSD CD-ROMs with you to a public library and use them to "repair"
at least one of their computer systems. Doing so may certainly freak
a pretentious librarian out, who claims to know something about
computers and doesn't, but that's not something that you need concern
yourself with.
Not with any of the librarians I know. They would not freak out - stay
cool and collected - as they telephone the police...
Then you could make 'em look *real* foolish - download a Linux distro
called "Knoppix" -> it boots & runs off of CD. Once you're done,
reboot &
yank the disk, it's back to winblows...
It's a good testing platform, and if you like it, it can install itself to
the hard drive just the way you see it, but you certainly don't have to...
... but I don't wanna get yelled at Jay, so I'll just say that my Model 100
came in the mail today, so I'll be futzing with my DVIs over the weekend...
