[PLUG] where do dey go-thanks

[jeff <jeffv@op.net>]

Thanks to everyone for your assistance on the mount dir question.
I knew it was going to be one of those DUH moments for me ;)

----------------------------------------------

In other news, I'm part of the interviewing team for what could be my 
new boss.  I figure it's in my best interest to have some say, plus I'm 
the only person with decent technical abilities at work.

My favorite part of the interview is the look on their faces when I 
mention the Total Linux Desktop Rollout Project.  One guy shook his head 
then brightened up because he figured he could learn something.  One guy 
looked horribly shocked.  The other interviewers learned to humor me a 
long time ago (kinda like my wife).

One of them is CIO.  He fails to get the benefit.  My old boss used to 
turn green.  For April Fools Day, I booted his computer from a Knoppix 
disk and told him we installed it permanently (over his XP).

Mind you, the COO and CFO's eyes opened brightly when I said FREE 
OPERATING SYSTEM.  They wanted to know all about it.  Heh heh.  I told 
them their network monitoring systems were running on it.

I'm gonna shoehorn linux in there somehow.  I was thinking about doing 
up a desktop or three to look like the Redmond Menace.  Maybe a minor 
file server or something.  So long as the Great Unwashed can access 
their spreadsheets and surf the web (don't ask me why, but 
nudeafrica.com comes up a lot in the stats), they should be ok.


your in open source,
jeff
