Best Buy sells a lot of Linux software, and it is very cheap. I bought it at Best Buy for $30 dollars, but you can get different flavors with more free software and pay a little more. But, everything about it is free. You don't have to buy it at all. I've downloaded a lot of it for free.

People are making Linux out to be something special. Fact is, it is a very weak program that is just another version of Unix and is very "un-user friendly". It will never rival Microsoft Windows NT or Workstation or 98 for that matter. But, it is getting a lot of free publicity.

If this was Cheney's idea of good news, I call it weak at best. I don't want to sound like I am ripping the press release, it will probably give a boost to the stock, but to be honest, I suspect we are heading down tomorrow.

Hope no ones thinks I am trying to bash NAVR...When I read the press release, I thought..."BIG DEAL!"

IF this is the main reason for the late surge, I would say we eventually go down tomorrow...up a little to start, but then down...unless we get more news! :o)

I should also point out, that Linux makes people think happy thoughts, so the un-educated will probably drive this up!
