Ok I got it and no bullshit. Forget NetLinux. We will start a company and make our own non UNIX non Windows operating system. All text. No crashes. IF the clients howl and scream we tell them to learn ROFF or TEX to typeset their documents and don't bug us. tell them we will train then on it. BUT we have these two great advantages. Although we run straight non MS DOS command line we sell the source code as an extra for the same price. One hundred dollars with free upgrades. After all someone has to pay for publishing and distribution. AND we sell a manual for fifty bucks in PLAIN ENGLISH. Every command explained simply AND an ON Line manual AND DISK MAP so you can actually find something in less than 15 minutes! So if they like this plain text command line system that does not crash and does networks and they still want more we build a true client server GUI where the SERVER runs the Windowing system on each terminal or computer and the GUI can crash without bringing down the operating system AND the files are saved every minute AND you can recover from a delete STAR dot STAR. AND the system has a GOOD email package with, GASP, multiple mailing list and AN ACTUAL DATABASE of MAIL. Imagine! AND WOW a SPELLING CHECKER! Whoopee! AND NO NETSCAPE. Maybe a browser that NEVER CRASHES. NEVER. I promise. AND GASP, DRAG AND DROP! WOW! AND maybe EASY TAPE BACKUP and Maybe SCANNING AND USB and it PRINTS TOO to colour printers in GRAPHICS. Imagine! But let's not call it Linux beacuse we will be dead before Linux has those features. We will be dead before Linux has a good word processor that can run when Netscape is running and maybe GIMP at the same time too! Would be nice. Not that I'm bitter. EC<:-}
