You know friend, you *really* shouldn't assume linux users will get |
| 13 |
the same results you're getting on windows. It's a little frustrating, |
| 14 |
especially when you tell people *they're* having PEBKAC errors and |
| 15 |
being a bit smug and it turns out *you're* reporting your experiences |
| 16 |
with a whole other OS. |

It's bad form, and some people will get angry with you over that sort of |
| 19 |
thing. Not me though, I should have stuck to the old rule that "headers |
| 20 |
help determine credibility". Had I paid attention to that, I'd have |
| 21 |
looked into it better before wastig so much time. :) |
