bigpond-user ....

I totally agree with Ben on this issue. Of all the Linux user groups in
Australia I find certain pluggers as the most arrogant who are trying to
impose their views as the gospel.

Very unfortunate I thought. The soul of a list is not where it should
be.

I thought people came here for a friendly atmosphere and for help on
Linux.

I use Outlook/Outlook Express also, but that doesn't mean I don't
support
and use Linux.  In my opinion, I think Linux is a really great server OS
and
I use it on several server machines that I have control over, but I
simply
don't use it as a desktop/GUI OS.

Does that forfeit me from posting on PLUG simply because I'm not posting
from within Linux?  Everyone has to start somewhere...
