- Someone else mentioned that there isn't even real information who
- sells palladium, but I don't think this was the information the
- original poster was looking for (at least I don't).
-
- The strongest objection against palladium was based on its concept and
- user interface.
-
- So what *is* its concept and user interface? The debate about
- palladium seems a bit weak as (except one person) nobody in this group
- (comp.unix.bsd) seems to know how palladium really looks like and how
- it works.
