I am an on-line news project manager.  I have been responsible for 
putting Dow Jones and no Standard & Poor's on-line in a mass distribution 
capability including TCP/IP, Sattlellite, and Web distribution.

I have been using Unix since 1982, and have been using Linux since 1992.
I have been using Slackware, Plug'n'Play, Red Hat, and Soft-landing 
distributions.  I like having practically every application I have ever 
wanted to download/compile... at my fingers and ready to run.  I actually 
prefer it to a Sparc-20 and Solaris.

I pulled down Netscape, and wine, but I have been finding that Andrew
EZ meets most of the same needs as Microsoft Office.
