Just a troll. Kill file him and move on. He seems particularly
interested in imitating me. *shurgs* Must be my incredible charm,
superior intellect, and dashing good looks. :^)

Hicks should ask himself why it is that only he is targeted.
Another "troll" has offered a 5,000 dollar bounty to the person who
brings an end to Hicks postings.

Hicks should ask himself why only he is subject of such a bounty.

cordially, as always,

Yes, and that's killfiling rm. At this point, thank you for assisting

Been testing the Novell linux for them. Veeery pointy-clicky. Kind of
like hell, but with the Novell name slapped on it. I'm recommending it
to all the corporate customers. Good sense of humour all around.

Not a real valid comparison, I would think. You used *VERY* old versions
of Suse and Mandrake in your very biased efforts...

I'm not saying Slack was a wrong choice. I use Slack and Mandrake both,
but to have some credibility the comparisons should be with the same
generation of each distro. Don't you think?

Now you are patting me "against my hair" or what is left of it.
What exactly you want to compare?
The kernel which I started compiling on my boxen in last years of
previous millenium.
The configuration scripts which in one distro I read in human language
and in the other I have delivered by some UFO (aka. Wizard).
The applications that when needed can be installed on both.
The ease (aka laziness) of the "intuitive" user who spents her/his hours
crying "HELP!!!" on relevant groups.

Maybe you want to compare my ability to install one distro against
someone elses ability to install another and configure it to our
respective usages of them.
What is it? "Paraolimpic" competition?

Have fun
