Will,
I'm still discovering all the items I like! So far
being able to test
immediately has my attention, ie: testing for an
ICH7 kernel that has
sound!! :D. I've also enjoyed being able to easily
read the change
log associated and the ability to download a
previous version if
something goes wrong.
But most impressive is the level of integration
required to make it
all happen. Credit is due, you guys know what your
doing! Innovation
like this is exactly what Linux needs...
Thanks for all the hard work!
You are right on Dr. Diesel. Linux is coming along.
Several people tell me that they will have to learn it
since Dell now ships Ubuntu.

p.s. I wonder when m$s build system will be online??
It will happen whenever M$ releases their code, ie.
make it opensource. But that is very hard to believe
that it will ever happen.

Antonio
