The point I am trying to make is if I fire up my windows98 boxand use internet 
explorer to go to a site with sound, I can hear the sound.  I've installed 
Linux on probably 40 or 50 boxes and I can't get sound on my own box.  I 
correspond with folks who can't even tell me what browser they are using, but 
they can get sound with it.

Linux is great, but it ain't easy.   Yet.
