@klinux, yes there are a lot of free ebooks available from the internet... I especially like the docs available from Linux Documentation Project.

As for that interview video of RMS, actually it was shot by us when he came to TIFR last year only. We have also produced/compiled FreeDoc CD. that is distributed by FSF - India .... Its a 300MB CD that contains all the Free Documentation (free as in beer and free speech) available from TLDP and other sites...

Raaabo, i can send the Freedoc CD to you if you want to have a look at it. We could work towards making the Jan issue a Linux special issue.... complete with lotsa themes and distributions... and featuring all the Free/Open Source alternatives available... I can help digit team with this...

It is good for me if u give all wallpapers of actress,actors and movies from
indiafm.com. WP provided by indiafm are of high quality.

This way I will have one good reason to buy Digit!

If this is not possible then, i would like to see these items

-> Beautiful Opera7 skins
-> WindowsXP themes, StyleXP themes..
-> PDFs of old SKOAR, PDFs of yrs old CHIP Specials like VC++ and others

Well to start with, I think most of us will like to get an Update of Style XP as it doesn't work with WinXP SP2.
After that you should give us loads of StyleXP themes. Of course you can provide them, cutting on WMP Skins.
Firefox 1.0 PR should be provided, as Opera doesn't support GMail. In fact GMail doesn't support Opera.
Maybe you can do with some cracks. Heh! Just kiddin!
Ahh, yes....The latest Winamp Update 5.06 and some cool AVS Presets. You've never provided them, I think.
At the moment I can only think of these. If I can get something else I'd post l8er.

Please include all the latest must have tools for the system! other than the normal essentials.

Please provide guidance/tips on having more than one OS in the system and the issues invloved in it.
Something like ME/XP/Windows2000/Linux combinations in a single system.
