God no! LOL. I am not an elite hacker at all (and you have obviously never looked at "Knoppix Hacks". Anyone who can use Windoze can understand that book). I posted here only to share with others the my belief that Roblimo's books and methods are a poor substitute for much better alternatives and the warn potential users that getting Mepis they are not getting free software. Does that make me an asshole? I will let you be the judge of that. Cheers!
