- Ok, I'll be thrilled by $300 a month when my current summery salary from
- two jobs as LAN admin and UNIX admin is about $30 and having 14 hours
- work day (and night). I am not complying (average salary at my
- country is about $8), just wanted to clear things up.

- No, we can't :-(
- Ratio of hackers/users really much more in xSU (IMHO) then in US but
- to "produce OS like OS/2" or even something simpler one needs some
- conditions. Here must exist companies with enough $$$ to make from thous
- hackers-individualists the teams of professional programmers.
- Programmers or companies must again have enough $$$ to bye needed
- software, needed books and real computers. Now best bye computers here
- are old AT and XT.
