In other words, you just hate Microsoft, not their products - no, the software Microsoft produces is good enough to use, you just don't want to give them the money that you own them. If you want your group to have even an ounce of credibility, use only Linux (or OS/2) and purchase your software from other companies, and tell your members not to *run* any Microsoft programs at all (Win95, Windows, DOS, Word, Flight Sim, etc.) If you advocate software piracy then you're sinking way lower than Microsoft ever has. As for me, I'll continue to use whatever software I decide is best for the task. -- +=And=the=Master=said=unto=the=silence,="In=the=path=of=our=happiness=shall=+ \ we find the learning for which we have chosen this lifetime." - R.
