I contacted some of the v.c. firms behind Red Hat, even tried to open an account with them for the purpose of getting in on the IPO, no dice - there has to be a play here somewhere?!?!?

That is not true. I am starting the next Microsoftie. I guess some people thought I was being facetious when I asked them to send me all their money but I am d.e.a.d serious. Sell your house and BMW to get ready cash. (You can live in a tent until the dividends start.) Make a bankers draft out to my name, E. Charters. PM me for the address. We are starting a new Y2K in/con/sulting company that will write a client server graphical user interface that will be so superior to X-Windows that it will not even be a big joke anymore. art.net These are some of the reasons that people might like our system more.

And you don't have to learn 700 Unix commands to run Win 98.
