What exactly do you mean support linux?? I used cox and Linux for two
years. As a computer geek, support means RTFM, and figure it out. Calling
support and hearing them turn their troubleshooting guide pages only annoys
me. If I am calling support, it's to tell them whats wrong with their crap
(i.e. support them!). Sorry for the rant, but just because someone doesn't
support something, doesn't mean it won't work. It means they don't want to
mess with it, because the cost is too great or the learning curve is to
steep, or their idiots .. etc.
