Nah. It's not Linux-bashing that gets me hyped up. :) <br><br>It's damned ignorance that gets me going. <br><br>

I can't say Linux is better then MS because I never used it. To me, one of the reasons that it sounds good is because it's a open source code. I don't like MS greedy tactics either, but I always used Windows and like it (as I said, I never used Linux to compare).<br><br>Paul, what does h4x0rs mean?<br><br>Turnip, your a DOS old timer too? I remember being a little suspicious when Windows came out.

Luc,<br>  I can't find the frickin' link to the site I saw about this, but it was good, I will try to dig it up.<br>  What I do know is that I had no problems getting my iPaq to do Linux, but my Casio kept crashing when I did it.  I used the CF method with an image to do it, but I can't say I spent more than few hours farting around with it, so maybe it could work on a Casio.<br>  Thing is, I would rather have my iPaq for business stuff, so PPC is the better OS for me with that.  I would play with Linux on my Casio, but I haven't had the attention span to do it yet.<br><br>Anyhoo, I'll find that link...actually go diggin' on this site, I swear I got it here.
