LOL! You'd never make it at M$ with that anti-capitalistic position,

Paul! "You gotta FORCE 'em to use your stuff and pay your dues,

man...it's the M$ way!" <bg>

On a serious note though, if MonkeyBoy Ballmer called you and said "Paul,

you open-source, bleeding liberal, socialistic SOB (...well, maybe he

wouldn't say that part), what do you suggest we do in our sales
