Hello Terry,
I'm sure John will reply too, but I have to put in my 2c's worth.
The biggest difference you will experience as a Linux user is the
amount of help and assistance that is available. If you join your
local LUG (Linux Users Group) you may end up with a house
full of helpful geeks! horrors! Linux newbies are treated with
a deference never accorded to WIndows newbies.
None of your M$ flavour software operates under Linux but that
is really no hardship as the quantity and quality of USEFUL
software is very extensive. To preview such offerings go to
http://freshmeat.net/ there are many other sites that offer Linux
software but this is everyones favourite starting place.
Hardware can present a problem if you have Win specific items.
I have a Brother PC label maker that requires Windows so I am
stuck with a dual boot machine until I can sort it
HTH. Tony.

SITE REVIEWED!
Comments on Site #144: http://www.tpcenterprises.com/
info at tpcenterprises.com
~~~~
There was a lot of information there. The links were useful and
worked just fine. I felt the only way to understand what was
happening would be to print off information and read it ON
PAPER OFFLINE.
~~~~
At first glance this is an extremely well designed site.
Navigation is easy, color choices are great and no blatant errors.
However after spending over 10 minutes going through the site
for several pages and checking the Questions and Answers page
and finally going to the order page before I could find out the
cost and possibly order the " sales kit ".
I find that the offer is not for anyone except US citizens - therefore
eliminating and alienating over 1/2 the internet .. ( Yes the US is
important but the internet is a WORLD WIDE web - about 55%
are not American. IF the product is not available anywhere else
except in the US at this time. State that on your opening page.
You may expand your market later to involve the majority of
Internet users who are Not living in the USA and might mention
that. The way it reads now you have P'd off anyone that had an
interest in your proposition and went to the trouble of going
through your presentation only to find that they can't order it.
~~~~
Overall design plan is good in navigation and viewing, but it
is lacking in pictures. Although graphics can slow a page
down some, it makes the reader want to read. So add some
well placed graphics and maybe some pullquotes. The title
"Quality Wholesale Merchandise" could also use a different
font or something.
~~~~
This is a let's get down to business website. Everything is
carefully explained and simple to understand. Definitely
focused and sounds like a great business to be in. The only
things I could suggest is to have testimonials from current
distributors and information about how long you have been
in business.
~~~~
Great colour and layout consistent throughout the whole site,
with easy to follow text. My only query was that International
involvement was not addressed.

<p>CPM means cost per thousand. For example, if you purchase
<br>10,000 banner impressions at $10 CPM, you'll end up paying
