Hi Richard,

If it doesn't run/can't run Linux (which is a shame, as it looks pretty
darned good) then perhaps this should have been posted on the -talk list?
(In case you didn't know the list's been split in two, so that everything
linux related goes on linuxsa at linuxsa.org.au, and everything else goes on
linuxsa-talk at linuxsa.org.au)

Welcome back regardless; I'm looking forward to reading your posts!


Regards,
DFW
