Well said. While reading it I was thinking to myself that I didn't think I really wanted my child reading this and that it had no business being in a school. I was also thinking that a child interested in reading these comics would probably already be exposed to Linux. After reading the first issue I didn't find it all that educational either.<br>

<shakes head> I went to the link and was shocked, just shocked by the sheer violence of Tux putting the smack-down on MS ;-) IŽd rather teach my child that the keyboard is mighter than the sledgehammer. Besides, a name like that smacks of anarchy and dishonesty ??? Comments ?<br>

GNU/Linux has provided me with many opportunities through application of hard work and study. It provided me with career choices that I never would have had, had I been just content to only use MS products.<br>

have fun,<br>
