Hi George,
You mentioned that the person may need more than one
developer. If he does, I currently have a comfortable
place to work with my own static IP address on a T-1
connection. Also, my computer is dual-boot Windows 98
(I can install Windows 2000 Professional if needed,)
and SuSE Linux 8.1 Professional.
See you later, I enjoyed the late dinner last night,
the place we went has a nice cheery atmosphere.
Adrien
