I have grabbed a copy from you and because of you I konw that I will buy a DVD as soon as available because this movie is a very good introduction to the Free Software World for non-geek people even if a lot of things have changed since the movie was made. I wish the best to J.T.S. Moore and hope to buy a DVD on amazon soon. Christophe On Sat, May 18, 2002 at 04:35:41PM -0400, Brian P.
