Thanks Peter.... and if the Singapore OpenSolaris UG is looking for
some free giveways for their next meeting, then I think I can ship
something to Peter or to your User Group leader...if they are
interested in more free stuff from Sun... I work with Peter in Sun's
Technology Outreach Group...I am located in California.... we've also
got those OpenSolaris Live CDs that they gave away at CommunityOne in
May.

Cheers!
