Hi!
What do you think about of using LINUX? Here at University of Paderborn (Germany) is Linux the
system of the future. That means not, that we buy no more Sun's, but we also buy more x86
machines. And the best: IDL run's under Linux.
The most other software, we have for Sun (Sparc) we also have for Linux. In the many cases it's
GNU-software
