Re: RedHat in Israel [off - topic]



hi everyone

VISA and ISRACARD(MASTERCARD) are withholding information from the public,
they must respect ani deal made by "local" card to the limit of 500$ per deal -
this is part of the frenchise agreement.

so for buying a few books and cd's over the net it works fine with the local
cards.

bye
