Leo, What does it mean to be ready for prime time on the desktop? Does it mean taking Debian Linux and deleting a bunch of files and creating an install script for what's left? Red Hat supports both KDE and GNOME desktops, plus simple installation. I sure hope CORL doesn't plan on lifting this stock by pretending to have a desktop lead. They have some 80's bloatware that uses a Windows emulator to work at all under Linux. The emulator is so good (NOT) that the product was panned as a slow and buggy beta. Granted it is not being held up as a final release, but if it's simply running on top of an emulator, what's the problem? It's not really a Linux product, it's a Windows product running under an emulator. In other words, it ought to let Microsoft Office run on Linux, too. Danger Will Robinson
