Re: Looking for Ubuntu HTML Editor

["Maurice O'Prey" <maurice.oprey@xxxxxxxxx>]

Fair Viewpoint Pete

But MS write exceedingly good software and (with their experience) given a
second chance they'll do even better (IMHO)

I don't mind peoples opinions, nor sarcasm :-)

Wrong guy to ask...I carry one and both my sons are geeks...

Would I put my wife in front of Ubuntu?  Yep.  She knows how to run 
email (Thunderbird)  and Open Office in Windows so she wouldn't notice 
much difference.

Linux has a pretty geeky rap but it is getting better and better as 
Windows gets more and more bloated and "User Friendly" with great leaps 
forward like Vista (he says with words dripping with sarcasm).
