RE: [OT] Call to arms...so to speak
I remember getting a RHCE study book, only to find that the study
material on the CDROM only worked with IE (Netscape barfed), so I told
the publishers (Osbourne's) I was not impressed.
Their reply was, so what....I took the book back.
I think the on-line teaching stuff is pathetic and over priced, I would
not bother with it myself.

Subject: [OT] Call to arms...so to speak
I have spent the last 20+ years teaching myself about computers. I think
I did a great job, but in this day and age, having the piece of paper
makes all the difference.
I figured I would try to take classes online, as much time as I spend in
front of computers, it was a natural fit. I looked into a couple of
universities, and found windows to be a requirement. Then I found
aiuonline.edu, the counsel said you don't need IE. That was a week ago,
and I've pulled out most of my geek hair with more issues then I'd care
to rehash.
Bottom line is that I was told today that most people online today use
IE. I just wonder how they would react if a even a portion of the Debian
community contacted them, then refused to sign up because IE was the
only option.
Sorry for jumping on a soap box, I'll get off now.
