   yes thanks . i believe in the giving back and just was wondering how
. i can set up a repository . i just think i also need to pay the team
to . they do a great job and this is why linux is strong today and why
billy cant do much with it . i saw an article the other day where he
said linux was like communism because it was worked on and given back to
the community . i think the way Linux is designed there learning that
they cant compete with it . i know there's law suites and all but i
think in the end linux will prevail . but for every computer i sale ill
give back to the research team . its amatter of choosing linux hardware
and matching it with fedora core . . the one i am using only cost 300 to
build and anything else is gravy .
