No big deal. I used PSE with a free download of a copy of LINUX which I installed on my Win PC in 1996. I didn't create a disk partition. Just ran it from under the C prompt. I can't remember whose vers of LINUX it was, but it was gnarly and fast. The windows were not sizable and it reminded me of the first DOS GUIs.

Tom C...

I have been critical about ODIS's marketing efforts for quite some time. It seems to me that Mr. Alston is changing this. I do not know how the marketing efforts translates to some of the developers or if they have seen any change. Damien, care to comment.

From a PR standpoint and the type of wins they have been getting this sounds great. In addition, this LINUX announcement I feel is in line with listening to customers or prospects. I do not expect LINUX to unseat Windows but it makes available another segment for their products.

Finally the name change to eXeclon Inc. which I think was to be approved today is another good move.

Can't wait for the earnings report next Thursday with the projection being -$0.05. Wouldn't it be nice to see it positive for change, with Q over Q revenue gains as well as a good increase in SW license revenue and an increase in gross margins flowing from the increased SW license revenue.

To much to hope for???? Lets see.

Good Luck.
