Those people could not use and contribute to GNU Emacs if it wasn't because there is a port for that platform. That's a valid point, in general, but if you want to live in freedom you need to change your work situation. Can you bring your own computer to do the work on? Can you boot GNU/Linux on that machine from a live CD? -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation 51 Franklin St Boston MA 02110 USA www.fsf.org www.gnu.org Skype: No way!
