I agree with Greg. This list has a lot of members with various skill 
levels. From the seasoned Unix veterans, to Nt admins looking to expand 
their skills, to the curious windows home user. There may be someone on 
here that may fit this perfectly. On another, what I feel is a more 
important, note is this list is supposed to build a sense of community 
and be a pleasent and helpful experience for it's members. Isn't that 
what Linux and OpenSource is about, the sense of community? If I wanted 
 that type of attitude I'd be on a M$ list. Even if you are offended by 
this message, which I don't see, I don't think it's appropriate to post 
messages clearly attacking someone who was trying to help other users.

Just my 2 cents.
