I'm still planning to do it.
I want to adopt Linux for everyday developpement work as soon as possible.
When it is done, a Linux version of Chess Tiger will be natural.
I'm still not sure Linux is ready for me, or if I'm ready for Linux. I know it
will be **THE OS** in the end, I'm just wondering at what time exactly I can go
for it.
I'm going to try RedHat 8 and Mandrake 9. I would really like to be able to pass
Windows XP (still using WinME, the less worse Windows in my eyes).
