The  general  population seems to have an  ever-  increasing
interest  in  Open Source and it is also fascinated by  this
new wave of Linux, whatever it might actually look like (all
command  line?  Just  for servers?). I have noticed  that  a
number  of  authors  openly say that they  have  significant
traffic  surges whenever they mention Firefox, Linux, and  a
few items as such.

Best wishes,

Roy
