   Sorry Sean I would have spell checked the letter, but my MS-Office here
at work crashed and locked up my entire machine before I could send off
the letter.  The Win98 desktop would be so nice, if it were stable.
Please tell your buddies at MS that they should consider creating the
ability to load a BMP into the blue screen of death.  And actually, if
they could make it so it rotates the images that would be nice.  That way
I don't have to see the same image 3 times in one day.  Oh, wait, can you
hold on, I moved my mouse and win98 wants me to reboot.

   But really, I believe the WinNT v. Linux Server results, I'm quite
surprised, as was most of the community.  And really, all I can say is
that a company that throws several million dollars in development at a
product better produce something better, since their competition is doing
it as a hobby.  Personally, if I were bill I'd be pretty pissed that some
basement hacks, working for free are getting so close to the performance
of all my wiz kids whom I'm paying a pretty penny.

support the counter-culture.  keep the Man on his toes.
