Maybe even a couple of free-bees? If Bill Gates was dead he'd be turning around in his grave. Maybe his grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-grand-children will …

I have Windows XP and Windows7 networked fine. My problem is when I ping the WindowsXP machine from Windows7 I get "[B]request time out[/B]", yet they can share files back and forth. It doesn't make sense.

A [URL="http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/05/11/1220219&from=rss"]posting[/URL] on Slashdot today speaks of an [URL="http://www.eweek.com/article2/0%2C1895%2C2125848%2C00.asp"]interview[/URL] with Ubuntu founder Mark Shuttleworth which occurred last week.
