As I see from some of your other posts I checked out before receiving this
email. Do we put your remarks of the email in question up to a bad day? bad
RAM? a brownout?

Let's stop calling people stupid. Some of your other emails were well
thought out pieces, you don't need to sink to slinging...

Cheers all!

Now I would like to add one thing here. Following 3 years with Rogers/Shaw
cable, and now with telus in BC - the Yellowdog crew and people posting to
this list do a FAR better job of supporting this OS within this platform
than telus can with all of their resources! Good job, thank you!
