I've been toying with Linux for about 3 years now. I do not have it mastered, but I haven't given up either. Part of me is delighted with the current regognition of Linux (RedHat), but the other part fears that some entity such as Microsoft will somehow crawl out of the woodwork and take over. What are your views on this? Eventually I would like to be running Debian exclusively. I will admit though that I am learning on RedHat. Just curious.............. Don
