Eh. It's not so hard. If I can do it...

I still use MS-Windows quite a bit, but I plan to move completely to something else someday, whether it be Linux or some other option. I lost trust in the Microsoft Way a long time ago.

Just grab a Knoppix CD. Boot with it once in a while. Take your time. Have fun with it. Work is grueling, but play is liberating.

Or not. But the option is there, and getting easier all the time.

Oh yeah. I support fair trade too, and I share the concern whether it is for real or just a "marketing ploy". I like tea, but mixed with milk, sometimes, and never misery.

Hi, May be for coffee, bananas and so on the Fair Trade works but as concerns tea, whenever I gave a try, I found myself drinking poor stuff which I had paid more than correcly. You might think I'm stupid but I do believe it's not fair.

There are excellent teas from Taiwan and Japan. They are all fair trade, you can be sure.

Instead of Knoppix try Mepis if you want to have a complete Linux system, running from a CD only, no hard disk required. If you really want to be light and elegant, try Slax

then you are flying and you also have more time for tea.
