    Ya know, this just drives home the fact of how each and every distro of
    linux is it's own PROPRIETARY environment...

    I sat through so much anti-proprietary rhetorical bull*** at Summit last
    summer in NOLA and the mear simple fact that we don't have transparent o/s
    distro portability for applications just really annoyed me.

    So, next time you hear some linux zealot get up and bitch about how M$,
    IBM, etc., are proprietary (and they ARE), remind yourself that linux is
    also VERY PROPRIETARY.
