                http://www.sunworld.com

Dear SunWorld Subscriber:
Our August issue just went online, and we've got a special little
package waiting for you -- a tidy bundle of compelling Linux news
and feature stories:
     * SunWorld's Robert McMillan interviews Linus Torvalds
     * Learn how to load Linux on your SPARC machine
     * Cameron Laird compares Linux with Windows NT
     * Red Hat's buggy Linux 5.1 for SPARC gets a makeover
     * Linux gains big-time support -- even from Sun
We're also excited about the debut of a new biweekly column, Cameron
Laird's Regular Expressions. Twice a month Cameron will be adding a
new installment, chock-full of news, issues, and events in the world
of scripting.
Now let's just get straight to our August Table of Contents...
Best regards,
Carolyn Wong
