Hi Nico,

Linux can be so frustrating at times.  It is the most technologically
advanced, well written operating system out there.  But lots-of-luck
getting any work done with it.  If this was that "ubiquitous" other
operating system, there would be forty millions ways to send a fax.
If I wanted print to hylafax from a Virtual machine to Hylafax
with *THAT* bug riddled mess of an excuse operating system,
I have about forty options.
