As I have mentioned a few times my current employer is a Microsoft shop so I was suprised a week ago when at our fall conference when I saw Ethereal on a big screen in the sales room. I thought to myself hummmmmm, isn’t that interesting. A laptop running KDE on Linux using Ethereal to provide a baseline for security discussions on secure and open networks. Now Ethereal does run on Windows but it struck me as just a little funny Linux was on the projector all week.

I’m glad to see we are open to alternatives.. ;)
