It might be getting close to that tipping point.  I know FreeNX has
made it easier for me to initial try out NX and get it going.  Now I'm
convincing many of my tech friends to its advantages by simply giving
them a test account on my FreeNX desktop dev host.

FreeNX makes this possible for the single geek, who's not going to get
support from !M and just wants to try things out and see what its
like.  I know when I first tried NX couple years ago, the Debian
client keep crashing and the WinXP client wouldn't work. I could tell
if it was the server or client.  I sent an email to you guys and got
nothing back.

With FreeNX, help is readily available here. You get a vocal crowd of
supporters. We get a great piece of technology. Win-Win.

Maybe you should put the FreeNX lost income into your marketing
expense account. :)
