But that is just my view which could be biased (certainly > hope not). Point taken, and I certainly apologize for sounding snippy, that was not my intent. It's just that the guide started out stating it was referencing something specific is all my point was. If others want to expand on that, I fully support that. And it's great if others want to contribute ideas to it, that's the point of a wiki. Steve seemed to have some specific ideas he wanted added, so that's great if he or others want to expand on that. :) Again, the entire point of a wiki is for others to be able to contribute to already written material. There seems to be so much of a grey line here on the CentOS lists about what's off-topic and what's not. One time, a subject is off topic, and then the next, it's ok to branch out and be broad. That being said, I usually try to keep my writing contributed to CentOS specific things so I don't go off too far one way or the other. Just like the other day when I posted about creating a page of visualizations and what not, there was not much said among the Edit Group, because it was rather off-topic, even though a few people expressed interest and relevance. So, I'm not entire sure sometimes how to approach writing for CentOS for fear of being "off-topic." Usually when you start talking Windows on any CentOS list, you're told pretty quickly to take it elsewhere. Obviously, if someone is mentioning adding Windows things to guides, I don't want to be the one adding it because I don't want to upset the CentOS higher ups that push Windows is off-topic. I hope you understand what I'm trying to explain. I certainly didn't mean to sound harsh, so I wanted to explain a little further. Regards, Max
