[Elecraft] Linux and Operating

[Phil Hystad]

I too agree that this discussion has merit on the Elecraft web page.  But, all such discussions do run their course and should end eventually.  Even an on-topic K3 discussion needs to end at some point and Eric has done that in times passed.

I think the idea of jumping over to the Yahoo group Linuxham to continue Linux talk is a good suggestion.  Or, maybe someone should create an ElecraftOpSys group to discuss the pros/cons, merits, demerits, and troubles of various operating systems in use with applications associated with Elecraft.
