It was quite a thrill. The only other things I've gotten is one donation to my paypal account (quite a surprise) and a tightly folded one dollar bill sent to me in the mail with "thanks for cgywin (sic)" scrawled on the envelope. That was my very first token of appreciation. I still have the dollar bill in my desk. For the record, I'd accept laptops, too. :-) I'm pricing one of those out right now as my birthday present since Red Hat doesn't seem to be inclined to upgrade my old Pentium laptop. I keep hearing that the prices are coming down but unfortunately my expectations are going up faster than the prices are going down. I know that this is extremely off-topic but can anyone recommend a good quality laptop which could dual boot linux and XP, 1600x1200 resolution, large screen, 40+GB, 1.8+GHZ? I'm looking at either a Sager or Toshiba (I like the eraser pointing device) laptop currently. This is so offtopic that private email is fine. cgf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
