It has a nice "look and feel," and is reasonably snappy, especially considering it's running on a 300 MHz desktop. The default browser is apparently Mozilla, so it's familiar to me. Plus, it has the full functionality of Solaris under it. I'll be playing with it for the next few days, and let you know in more detail what I think, but my first impression is positive. The only bad thing so far is that I had a heck of a time getting the download completed and burned onto disks properly. I'm growing to like Linux, too -- in fact, in the end I used Suse to burn the installation disks for this, because I could not get any of the Windows software I had on hand to burn the ISO images in a way that the SPARC would boot from. K3b on Suse, on the other hand, worked the first time. JMHO. Charles Tutt (SM)
