NewsHosting (sympatico)

[Gary Layng]

Recommends Outbreak Express?  Once again, Sympatico shows just how much 
they've been partaking of Micro$oft's Kool-Aide.

It frustrates me on those few times when I call them how frequently (like, 
every other sentence) they say, "We don't support Linux."  I know already.  
I'm not asking them to support Linux; I'm asking them to support me.
