Arthur,

  Thanks for passing that along.  For now, it's in the "this might be
interesting" department.  I hope to get into this more towards the end of
the year.  Too many things going on at the moment.

If you're serious about this direction, let me suggest visting Borland.com
and grabbing a Kylix free download. If you like what you see, you can buy
the Enterprise version.

   Actually, with software like Boot Magic from Power Quest, it's a lot
easier then it sounds.  I've got 2 desktops and a laptop setup that way now.
Makes a nice sandbox to play in when I need to.

   Haven't played with Linux all that much yet. But I need to get up to
speed on it.  Looks like it may be the up and coming thing in a few years.
The new kernel will be released soon and its got some really nice features.
Going to give Microsoft a good run for its money I think.  Microsoft is
already resorting to some legal tactics to keep VFP based apps from running
on WINE (allows Windows based apps to run under Linux).

  Time will tell...
