Kia Ora folks,
(and no - it's not a tasty orange fruit drink, but rather the Maori greeting)
Just wanted to drop a quick hello all the way from New Zealand. We're currently in Kaikoura at a cyber cafe having been thwarted by the weather while trying to go whale watching off the coast :(
Anyway, Linux over here doesn't appear to have been welcomed with too many open arms, although I'm sure that New Zealand has a growing army of Linux fans somewhere. Firstly of all the cyber cafes we've been too, none of them had the initiative to use Linux for their terminals. Everything Windows 98 over here (and a lot of them are used by teenagers to play network games - Wellington is stuff full of such cafes). There are a few north island companies that distribute the ISO images of various distributions, but haven't found anywhere that actually sells the official box sets.
Anyway, having heard that Red Hat 7.2 has been officially released, that's something I look forward to trying out when I get back to the UK next week.
BTW, New Zealand is probably the most beautiful country on the face of this planet and highly recommend it to anybody.
Kia Ora (also serves as a goodbye)
Martyn
