<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>Hi Steven,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>I'll give you the simple plain English
answers to</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>your questions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial size=2>Ignorance=bliss...And at the moment, with
Jnos under DOS, I am in bliss</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial size=2>and I do not hope it is due to
ignorance.</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>Dos is easier than Linux if you unfamiliar
with Linux.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial size=2>And with those points the ignorance
possibly expresses itself. So I ask, before I hit</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial size=2>the books and get my Linux box up and going
with Jnos, just what ARE</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial size=2>the advantages, if any, of running Jnos
under Linux? Clearly there must be..</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial size=2>It seems the entire Jnos community has
shifted over...</FONT></STRONG></DIV>
<DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT></STRONG> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>Advantages:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2> </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2> JNOS runs much faster
under linux.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2> It won't crash as
often.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2> You can include all the
features you want in JNOS</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2> without worrying about
the memory limitations of DOS.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2> You can do other tasks
without exiting JNOS.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>Disadvantages:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2> If you are unfamiliar
with Linux, it is pure torture.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>I just made the switch to Linux recently,
and glad that I</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>did. I did a lot of hair pulling for
a while, but it is</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>pretty easy once you learn how.
Learning how is the </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>problem. Is it worth going to
Linux? It depends on</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>how patient you are.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New" size=2>73 and good luck, Gene - K8EE</FONT></DIV>
