Now the majority on this list, or were, are not professionals. They just 
look funny.
There used to be photos but they were taken off as a joke.

Must be a pom or something calling it a pub.

I will not say that we HATE, although I did use that term, M$; more like 
despise.
It is that we were here to show the world that linux was a workable environment
and in the short term could be a viable desktop. The term was very short in 
comparison
to what M$ has not achieved in the long term.

However I reiterate that there are some things we/I still need to be 
finalised and included,
i.e DVD authoring and its like, and its not like it has just suddenly 
appeared. It sometimes
takes far too long to implement.
