I have several people interested in having Kubuntu installed on their<br>
computers, however, I will not do it unless I know how to connect them<br>
to the Internet first! I can bring my own cable modem, though I doubt<br>
that there is HOT service in Taub. Or, I can invite the group to hold<br>
a meeting at our home in Nesher, 5-10 minute walk (two minute drive)<br>
from the Technion. Just let me know what beers everyone likes<br>
beforehand.<br>
<br>
Seriously, connecting to the Internet without a router in Israel is a<br>
known hassle in Linux and the issue needs to be addressed. Our friends<br>
at Nezeq and the other ISPs are not making it easy for us, as they<br>
require use of Windows-only dialers and restrict access to the modem's<br>
built-in http control panels.<br>

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.<br>
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?<br>
