[luau] Linksys and Red Hat (Not)

[Joe Linux]

While it's good to know that RH runs great on a specific machine, It is 
indeed sad to hear that Mandrake is having problems.  Perhaps there will 
be a Wallmart/RedHat PC that will be pre configured.  I don't think any 
computer system that isn't extremely both user friendly and very stable 
will be successful in the long run.
