Hi Plug,
a lecturer of mine at tafe said that he was listening
to ABC Radio's Tony Delroy show and they had their
weekly computer guru on (he said around last Tuesday).

He said he was very disappointed to hear a listener
ring up to talk about using linux for its security,
only to have the guru agree that "Linux is too
expensive 4 normal person to buy"!

I know that some of these things lose something in the
retelling and that sometimes people mishear and get
things wrong (but surely not this guy - he's a
pedantic C programmer).

I wonder if anyone on the list has the contacts to
verify what was said, and then if necessary, the easy
going charm and intelligence to ring up and put it
right. (Hi James)

Cheers,
Daniel.
