<br clear="all">As Alex said in his mail, maybe some one can make this virtual desktop thing work on Debian or some othe FREE Operating System. That would definitely be a huge advantage for Linux.<br>-- <br>\ \ / /__ _ __ (_) | |_ | |_

I agree with this option. If you have a fully functional virtual desktop<br>when Microsoft can't even get it right, that gives free software a huge<br>leg up on the situation. It's easier for corporations to want to switch
<br>with useful applications like this. And if corporations switch, home users<br>will want to switch. It's all about familiarity.<br><br>Jacob<br><br>> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----<br>> Hash: SHA1<br>>
