I wish I could say that for servers we are MS-free.  I can say we are 
MS-few.  The problems are the workstations, mostly the students.

I've told myself the next time my home machine pukes it's coming back as a 
linux box.  The damn machine has been great with Win2k.  Upping the thing 
to 512MB RAM was awesome.  The PIII/450 - 512MB RAM - Win 2K at home feels 
much faster than the PIII/1000 - 256MB RAM - Win 98SE at work.

There are 2 things also I would really, really want in the linux 
world.  Quicken and Eudora.  I'd almost add MS-Office to this list, but 
I've read that Sun StarOffice 6 is getting great reviews.

Other than Netscape for Linux, what other POP3 clients are their for linux?
