We did not acquire this domain name for the purpose of selling the domain name. However, at your request, we will appraise the value of linuxia64.org. This appraisal will take five business days. If the previous domain name owners would like to make an offer for linuxia64.org, please reply to this Email message with that offer. Otherwise, we will contact you when the linuxia64.org appraisal is complete. Best Regards, Wayne We'll see what they come back with... It's not clear *why* they did purchase the name, except to grab additional traffic. -Matt -- Matt Domsch Sr. Software Engineer, Lead Engineer Dell Linux Solutions linux.dell.com & www.dell.com/linux Linux on Dell mailing lists @ http://lists.us.dell.com
